Who are we?

We are a coalition of faith communities, organized labor and local groups who has united with the Occupy Detroit Eviction Defense Committee. All of us are fed up with the way banks are treating our neighbors and neighborhoods.

We are guided by our conviction that housing and decent working conditions are human rights that should not be subordinated to predatory banking policies.

The Eviction Defense Committee meets weekly on Thursdays at 6 p.m. To find out more and get on our email list, contact us at the above email address.

Flucker speaking with microphone

 

"It doesn't matter where you are with respect to home ownership. This effects you. It effects your community, and it effects our state and our ability to profit and be successful.

"The stories are exactly the same... I tried to work with my lender, I sent them the modification papers five or six, seven, eight times  -- no one will work with us...

"We  tried to buy the house back at above fair market value. They wouldn't let us. Why? Because they  can get paid  the full mortgage value… with our tax dollars through federal insurers."

— Lawyer for homeowners, Vanessa Fluker
