West River Tenants United

Organizing with Tenants in our Community

West River Tenants United is a Tenants' Union in Lakota Territory West of the Missouri River (in South Dakota), currently based in Mni Luzahan (Rapid City). We are an intersectional anti-racist organization, organized by and seeking accountability from the working class, Indigenous people, women, the LGBTQ+ community and other marginalized groups. We are not a service organization; we are a union, a vehicle for mutual aid, and a movement. We are bringing tenants together, educating our community about their rights in the colonizer's legal system, and supporting each other as we challenge landlords, government officials, and the unjust system of housing under capitalism.
