Sobre el Autor

Sobre el autor de Abolir el Alquiler

Tracy Rosenthal y Leonardo Vilchis, coautores de Abolish Rent: How Tenants Can End the Housing Crisis, son voces líderes en la justicia de vivienda y el activismo de inquilinos. Rosenthal, escritora y cofundadora del Sindicato de Inquilinos de Los Ángeles (Los Angeles Tenants Union), aporta una aguda lente analítica a la desigualdad en la vivienda, con trabajos publicados en The New Republic, The Nation y el Los Angeles Times.

Vilchis, un organizador veterano que cofundó Unión de Vecinos en 1996, ha pasado tres décadas luchando contra la gentrificación y el desplazamiento en Boyle Heights, fusionando campañas de base con colaboraciones académicas en el Instituto sobre Desigualdad y Democracia de UCLA. Su libro, publicado por Haymarket Books, combina una crítica rigurosa de los sistemas de alquiler explotadores con relatos de primera mano sobre la resistencia de los inquilinos, defensas contra desalojos y solidaridad transfronteriza.

Arraigados en sus roles como organizadores, los autores entrelazan estrategias de sindicatos de inquilinos con marcos abolicionistas, abogando por la propiedad colectiva y modelos de vivienda democráticos. Actualmente, Rosenthal lidera una huelga de alquileres en la ciudad de Nueva York, mientras que Vilchis continúa organizando a través de la sección del Este (Eastside Local) del Sindicato de Inquilinos de Los Ángeles.

Elogiado por Ruth Wilson Gilmore como una "lectura esencial" para la justicia de vivienda, Abolish Rent ha sido reseñado en The Chicago Reader y respaldado por abolicionistas de prisiones, consolidando su influencia en los movimientos por la equidad económica y racial.
