One day I’ma write something on the other side of gentrification—the gentrifier—in Hyde Park and how it taught me that these rich mofos really don’t give a damn. And than anybody* (even Black people) can seek to gentrify for the right amount and perks.

Gentrification is just colonization by another name and you are explicitly and deliberately displacing the poor and the lower class to do it. Period.

The idea of “improving” means removing the poor to make space for the affluent. NO MATTER what the affluent look like. And y’all need to say that shit with your chest.

The wild part is I’m not even the first person to say nothing about this. There are whole scholars that study this and people still wanna be like “WELL ACTUALLY”.

It's highkey reverse redlining. Instead of keeping the Black/Brown/Poor out of their neighborhoods, schools, grocery stores, etc, they force them out and replace the local bodegas/mom&pop shops with Whole Foods, build new, better schools for their kids, open expensive restaurants
