gentrification (good or bad?)
SNL Skit
piece was convincing; combined comedy with dialogue that described what gen was, and educates viewers whether they realize it or not
Ex: The guy is now a dog walker when stereotypically you prob wouldnt think that
Ex: artisinal store that popped up. was a white building surrounded by buildings that were darker in color and older looking
Ex: When they made a joke about gluten muffins
The creators should know that this is both comedic & educational, shows people a small piece of what gentrification is w/o being too heavy; commend them
I realized that gen is BIGGER than what I thought being that a Large tv show is creating material about it; they make jokes about things people can relate too so if they made a segment about it many people must relate to it.
TED Talk
STat: Black people in the bronx have a higher chance of obesity and asthma bc they are around sewage plants, waste plants, etc.
Shes not against developmets she just want to make them more green
Social explorer MAX and Byron
I realized this can be done when she gave the ex. of Bogota colombia and how the mayor took into account that the majority of people dont have a car while in the the bronx they did the opposite even thought the majority of people there did not own a car
It bothers me that the govt seems to turn a blind eye in these neighborhoods but it makes me proud to see people like Majora Carter that want to better their city
The changing state of gentrification
explores 3 reasons why gentrification has led to state intervention
to generate tax revenue
profit risks
shift towards post- keynesian governance
Gentrifiers and outside investors had to move their construction to "risky" neighborhoods in order to still make a profit because all other areas had been occupied in the two decades prior to the 80s
"the state shift into a more openly supportive role... helped facilitate a rapid expansion of the process during the 3rd wave." (470)
Gentrification of Black and White
state wanted to deconcentrate poverty and transform inner-city neighborhoods
"the removal of concentrations of very-low-income people of color allows a reimaging of urban spaces critical to the national and international competition for private investment" (1582)
they wanted to target project they felt had the greatest promise for additional public and private investment
gentrification has been put in place part to reverse urban decline in cities but has inadvertenly led to the displacement of many low- income black families that rely of public housing assistance
Economic Transition of Paterson
UEZ programs were put in place to "help revitalize the state's economically distressed urban communities" (6)
the gentrification programs are mainly aimed at one goal and that is to attract and retain businesses and industry to Paterson.
while it has created jobs and money critics have stated that it is very costly to operate and results are inconsistent and hard to quantify
ny times is gent all bad?
Public Advocate Letitia James “We live in a gilded age of inequality where decrepit homeless shelters and housing developments stand in the neglected shadow of gleaming multimillion-dollar condos,”
