With home ownership out of reach, more and more younger Australians have no choice but to rent for much longer than their parents ever did – maybe for the rest of their lives.That puts younger Australians at the mercy of landlords, making some intensely angry and leading to what might be described as a “renters resistance”. In this episode of 7am’s five-part special series on the housing crisis, we meet the people who are trying to make it better: the people who are mobilising, taking matters into their own hands and fighting back.Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and InstagramGuest: Tenant, Blake Hesketh; founder of shitrentals.org and social media figure, Jordan van den Berg; Senior lecturer in the School of Architecture, Design and Planning at the University of Sydney, Dr Sophia Maalsen.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
