Erin McElroy
Erin McElroy is a cofounder of the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project (AEMP), a San Francisco–based group that uses maps and oral history to chronicle and combat evictions and displacement. Erin recently obtained a doctoral degree in feminist studies from the University of California, Santa Cruz, for a project on race, technology, and gentrification in postsocialist Romania, and will be headed to NYU this fall for a postdoctoral fellowship on property technology, AI, and techno-urbanism. Erin has been involved in direct-action organizing in the San Francisco Bay Area and in Romania, and recently cofounded the Radical Housing Journal in order to help connect housing-justice work transnationally.
