Mini Doc Screening — “The Socialist Housing Plan for New York”

Join Reason and Manhattan Institute for a screening of the new mini documentary “The Socialist Housing Plan for New York.” Following the screening, Reason Editor at Large Nick Gillespie will host a panel discussion with the Reason producer Justin Zuckerman and Manhattan Institute policy expert John Ketcham.

The film features profiles of tenants, landlords, a private investigator, and the Harvard economist Edward Glaeser. It shows how policies like “freeze the rent” are turning New York into a city exclusively for the rich or lucky.

If he becomes mayor, Zohran Mamdani says he’ll “freeze the rent” for a million regulated units. This policy would make it even harder to find an affordable place to live in New York amid a historic housing crisis.

• Justin Zuckerman, Producer of Documentary title, Producer, Reason

• Moderated by Reason Editor at Large Nick Gillespie
