Housing Leadership Day 2022: Re-Entrification: Re-Imagining Housing Through the Arts by Lyrical Opposition
We're grateful to the Housing Leadership Council of San Mateo County for inviting Lyrical Opposition to be part of this important conversation.
It was an honor to share Re-Entrification and contribute to a dialogue about housing, displacement, and the lived experiences of our communities. Storytelling has the power to humanize complex issues, and we're thankful for spaces that bring together advocates, organizers, artists, and community members to imagine more just and equitable futures.
Thank you to everyone who attended, engaged with the film, and continues to do the work of advancing housing justice across San Mateo County. We're proud to stand alongside organizations using every tool available—including art—to inspire conversation and meaningful change.

HLD 2022: RE-ENTRIFICATION: Re-Imagining Housing Through the Arts by Lyrical Opposition
Lyrical Opposition showcased a portion of their film Re-entrification that tells the story of 5 different residents displaced from their homes due to the city’s high cost of living. This is to highlight how tiny homes have become a sanctuary where families can have the fundamental human right of a home. The film begins a conversation on issues revolving around the housing crisis as a vehicle to fight Nimbyism. We will speak truth to power through poetry and testimonies from people directly affected by these unjust conditions.
