Razing NYC: The Disappearance of Affordable Housing

 

One community in Brooklyn examines their plight and fight for affordable housing.


Gentrification wears different masks: in San Francisco's Bay View, it's "Community Redevelopment," in Downtown Los Angeles it's "rejuvenation." Yet no matter what fancy name it's given, the results are the same: the systemic removal of low-income communities and people of color. In this video from the Global Action Project, one community in Brooklyn, New York examines their plight -- from media rumors to strategic campaigns for affordable housing.
