In our post-Kelo world, eminent domain abuse poses a serious threat to property rights and to the constitutionally guaranteed freedoms associated with them. But few Americans really understand the concept of eminent domain. Still fewer are in a position to defend their rights when the government decides to seize their property. But MPI fellows Michael Galinsky and Suki Hawley are working to change that with The Battle of Brooklyn, a stunning new documentary about how government has colluded with private developers to seize Brooklyn homes and businesses--and how the community is fighting back.
Watch a newly released six-minute teaser--and please consider supporting the completion and promotion of this stunning and incendiary new film.
