African Americans and Gentrification in Washington, D.C.

Race, Class and Social Justice in the Nation's Capital

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Using qualitative data, including extensive interview material and ethnographic research, to explore the experiences and ideas of African Americans as they confront and construct gentrification, this book contextualizes Black Washingtonians' perspectives on belonging and attachment during a marked period of urban restructuring and demographic change in the nation's capital. African Americans and Gentrification in Washington, D.C. sheds light on social hierarchies and standpoints unfolding over time to present a portrait of a heterogeneous African American population, wherein members define their identity and culture as informed by their knowledge of the impact of injustice on the urban landscape.
