RAHU members refuse to be taken advantage of by greedy landlords. We need structural change so we are not forced to defend our selves just to be able to afford to keep a roof over our heads.

#RAHU and SwelteringCities will be co hosting a panel event called Heatwave Safe Homes, For Renters. Without any right to cooling renters are left to suffer in dangerous temperatures.
With climate change pushing our thermostats ever higher, it is a matter of urgency, a public health emergency for renters in Victoria, and all over Australia to have the right to cooling written into law.
Join us: 6pm, Thursday, November 2nd.
The Renters and Housing Union invite you, the renter, the public tenant, the rough sleeper, those with insecure housing, and those in student accommodation from all over Kaurna/South Australia to join us for an online meeting hosted by RAHU.
This event will provide an opportunity to learn about the housing crisis in South Australia so that you know your rights. Here you will learn about what RAHU does to fight for secure housing for all and how you can become involved in the struggle for renters rights. We'd love to set up local branches in your area if there is interest from people just like you. Don't miss out on this chance to be a part of the fight for accessible, appropriate, and affordable housing for all!

On Friday the 15th, Transgender RAHU members and their allies joined https://kolektiva.social/@TransQueerSolidarity and others to stand against dishonest and violent reporting on trans people by the mainstream media. We gathered outside the Channel 7 building in response to their Spotlight episode on “de-transitioning” children.
Common Ground Conversations – a group of far-right agent provocateurs – turned up to disrupt the protest; to misrepresent and harass protesters. This was, per usual, under the guise of “just asking questions”. The political tactics of these guys haven’t evolved since 2014, it seems.
RAHU and other protesters formed a blockade to make Common Ground Conversations’ footage unusable while preventing them from getting too close to the crowd. We, as a union, categorically denounce these culture war attacks that are perpetuated by fascists, capitalists, and neoliberals. They target groups of people that destabilise the hegemonic ideal of what society “should be” and how those within it “should live”.
Channel 7 may issue all the apologies they want but they cannot wash the blood from their hands. Spreading disinformation about vulnerable and marginalised groups has consequences. Trans folk, First Nation people, refugees and immigrants, the poor, and other such groups are all too often used dishonestly by the media. They spin their narratives to create division amongst the working class, including renters.
Make no mistake. This is class warfare. We will not be divided.
