"Gentrification is a process of renovation of deteriorated urban neighborhoods by means of the influx of more affluent residents."
I actually dont see how its a bad thing...
Blacks are poor
Cant afford rent
Have to leave
then move, the neighborhood shouldn't stay shitty
Ask San Francisco, locals have been demanding tech companies engineers to move out.
Because poor people can't afford to live there anymore.
@Deleted User There is a reason we Love you
My take on this is: if white people moving out turns your neighborhood to shit, maybe the whiteys were the ones keeping it nice. They don't owe a nice neighborhood to anyone. That said, government shouldn't deny services, and I believe that's illegal.
Again we turn to Empire of Dust
at some point you have to separate market forces from perceived racism. people try to do what is in their best interest, and if enough people do that trends will emerge, and then you can look at those trends later and come up with all sorts of ideas as to what the motivation behind it was. but at the end of the day, it's just people trying to improve their lives.
If you see things only in a racial lense, you will see racism where there isnt any
exactly
yup
I actually don't understand the issue with Gentrification though, I probably don't know too much about it, but from the Wikipedia article, it sounds like the shitty neighborhoods are improving when "whities" move in.
Imagine Broo and Kaden watching Empire of Dust together
As for business leaving when demographics change, could simply be the new locals spend less money on the business. Maybe they have less money, or different culture. Gotta raise prices to stay afloat, or move shop.
The second thing is, who wants to own a shop in crime infested part of town?
White Flash is different btwfrom gentrification lol @franti
"white flash"
<:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>
But The Flash has always been white... Or did DC reboot it again?
I don't care if you are Purple or Green
gentrification can be bad for poorer people because making a neighborhood "nice" drives up prices because people want to move there. also more expensive shops will move in to cater to the richer people.
I have a Dream
racism is just an excuse for commies to shit on capitalism
In the Uk we call it Keeping up Appearances
in the USA it's more White picket fences
lol, we have that show on PBS

@Fulcrum010 redpill her, with your dick
Hahahahahaha
That would be ideal
But for real, I do believe his sister have a lot to gain by hanging around here
You think Communists suffer from a Survivorship Bias?
As in we have no dropped enough of them into the ocean?
or that they have been able to swim back
