Gentrification of Black Broward
Is anyone in St. George concerned about our community being overcom by the wave of gentrification in central Broward? Have you noticed the heavy flow of real estate agents in our neighborhood and the signs posted asking to buy homes in the area for cash? Did any one read the December 12 Sun Sentinel article entitled ''The Price of progress'' by Brittany Wallman and John Maines? We are at risk of being displaced with the help of the people voted into office to protect us. We need to protect ourselves by becoming informed and involved. The poverty level in the affected and soon to be affected areas will not change until we collectively make an effort to change our economic habits. I would like to hear what other residents in our community have to say about this subject. If you need a copy of the article just e-mail me.
