Collective Sets Up Pirate Radio Station to Address Housing Crisis

Prospectus artist John Hulsey (participant in Alfredo Jaar’s Public Interventions) is part of a collective of artists and activists who have set up a pirate radio station within a Fannie Mae-owned house at 193 Norwell St., Dorchester, where the community group City Life/Vida Urbana recently moved a homeless couple in protest of the large number of foreclosures and resident displacements in the city of Boston.

Marisa Mazria Katz of “CreativeTime Reports” recently interviewed John about City Life/Vida Urbana’s action and the tole of the pirate radio station in addressing homelessness and the housing crisis.
