After the recent industrial action across the Higher Education sector, the Mile End Institute Podcast returns with a fascinating discussion about the history and future of the Aylesbury Estate in South East London, which was once described as one of Britain's 'more disastrous experiments in postwar municipal housing' and a 'byword for crime and deprivation'. 

The Institute's Deputy Director, Dr Lyndsey Jenkins, is joined by Dr Michael Romyn (QMUL) - the author of London's Aylesbury Estate: An Oral History of the 'Concrete Jungle'. She also talks to Caterina Sartori (a PhD candidate at Goldsmiths and the Film Festival Director at the Royal Anthropological Institute) as well as Aysen Dennis and Laura Fudge, two housing activists, about their experiences of living and campaigning on the Aylesbury Estate.
