About this Event

Doors & Open Bar: 6:30pm

Screening: 7pm followed by Q&A

Celebrate 30 years of stories and advocacy at the Housing Works Bookstore with an exclusive screening of "The Good Fight."

From wrestling mats to courtroom clashes with America's Mayor, "The Good Fight" chronicles award-winning civil rights lawyer, and Housing Works’ Senior Staff Attorney, Armen Merjian’s relentless battle for justice, housing, and dignity for the most marginalized.

Set against the backdrop of New York City, the film delves into Armen's incredible career, particularly his David-and-Goliath confrontation with Mayor Giuliani's administration. This quintessential New York story highlights themes of resilience, justice, and the fight against systemic inequalities, underscoring the importance of never giving up the good fight.


Tickets include beer/wine/soda open bar. Cafe will remain open for cash purchase of non-open bar items.
