On Gentrification in Brooklyn (Bed-Stuy) and Harlem We see this all of the time in Bed-Stuy, Harlem, Sugar Hill, Over-the-Rhine in Cincinnati, Detroit, Chicago, Newark, Trenton, NJ, Inglewood, Los Angeles ----- please tell us how entire generations of Black people can walk pass a vacant plot of land or a building with historical significance to our culture, and do absolutely nothing but allow it to fester; yet as soon as an outlier multi-million dollar investor comes in to re-gentrify that same area, Black people all of a sudden find the time, money, energy and effort to galvanize in protest yet they could not find that time over 5 generations to purchase that same plot of land r building?? c. 2014, The BHFG
