Gentrification and Segregation of Bedstuy
Greetings and salutations Bedstuy residents and previous residents. I myself am an ex resident though I have grown up and lived in Bedstuy most of my life. For a school project I am addressing and taking action towards an issue in my community. While i dont live in Bedstuy anymore I have witnessed the progressionion of gentrification and segregation and its very important to me. I love Bedstuy and the community it once was. I feel it has lost its spark and is mostly just a cash grab for the government while our community suffers or is forced out. What I am asking of you is for your opinions and experiences in Bedstuy about gentrification and segregation. My personal experience with segregation was the charter schools, especially uncommon. Those schools for “black and brown” kids are unruly and overall put its students at a disadvantage compared to the school white kids would go.
