Regardless of race there are some people who live in these areas that are being gentrified who can't afford the rising cost of living that comes with the process of gentrification. Where are people who are being pushed out of gentrified areas supposed to go live? I did not hear her address this point in the video. We need solutions for everyone.

The only solution is to build lots of housing and mandating that certain percentage minimum must be affordable housing

Certainly an interesting perspective. My question to her is how can black people make beneficial contributions to change when they have no control over the gentrification process? How does that even work?

As I hear this speech is towards the rich blacks to not move out of their neighbourhoods but invest in them and make them better.

Obviously, she's had a good life. When You come from poverty, you're not thinking about legacy: all you want to do is survive.

I LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!! Thank you sister for speaking out on this issue. I'm not in your generation, I'm a millennial but my family is already working towards this goal!

we must be willing to evolve so we can form a agenda that will create a legacy that we can trust and inspire hope generations to come.

She is amazing ! Thank you 🙏 this should be taught in schools!

Good work

Invest in your neighborhood when you can't even pay the rent? In what planet does she live? Gentrification is not a game. Well, maybe for her it is.

Enric Alvarez if you acquire a good skill, all/some of family move in together instead living separate for awhile and work on your credit you mortgage will be cheaper than your rent. THEN, your children won't have to work as hard and that same house will be worth A LOT more once their older.

The truth is not the moving, its the market reaction....So the point is what regulation can be applied to regenerate areas with 'mild' increase rather than high that short term attractive gains would attract quick return investors, or do local authorities front the money over long term and attract business to supply money for people to earn then consume (but still keeping housing out of investment)? Do we actually try and take housing out of investment portfolio's? Again all cause and effect, so we need some kind of 1980's cold war games to play out the various scenarios....my pennies worth...

Why is everything white vs. black? Not all whites are rich and not all blacks are poor. Gentrifications really focusses on social class or socioeconomic status. I am black and I can see this!

The media and groups like BLM and NOI want to have the easy way out and make people VICTIMS of society instead of being accountable for personal choices, the choice of being truant, of not getting an education, of being lazy, of being entitled. IT IS THE BEHAVIOR that is at fault. Ask any kid, they will tell you, "You can;t make me do anything!" So whites did not "make" you not get an education, have a poor work ethic, be a slob and litter, have a bad attitude, be entitled .... GROW UP!

******Alley******* it's not about black vs white it's about black stepping out of last place economically and socially. We live in a capitalist society. The dollar rules this land. No dollars no respect. Until we reach practice group economics like EVERY OTHER RACE HERE (asians, Indians, Jewish, etc) we will continue to be last economically and the least respected. We have the HIGHEST employment rate in the nation for all education levels. If we practiced group economics we can hire our own.

Great talk! I have a different perception of gentrification. 😊

She's spitting nothing but bars I'm going to get out the same old mindsets we've been living with

We must get back to it

I mean, That works if the gentrified houses stay within the limits of their lot. When they make them bigger to increase the value and make them look more appealing, good luck. Like, my biggest problem with gentrification is the land usage. People don't reproduce like they used to, but a big spaced out neighborhood is still the look developing agencies tend to create. It's justsuch a waste of land imo. And then how many years does it take before it's decided that the new house should be demolished and regentrified per the cycle you talked about?

Yes to the dress

There is hope

In answer to your question, I don't know and I don't care.

Based on the rhetoric she is only repeat information she was given. She did not go and research any of the points she stated. She speaks as if these things were not in place before property were stolen. Why, the same message but just different words to say the same thing. The view is so simplistic but in the wrong view

Why is it that TED never has white people speaking on this subject?

Back when I was a youngster I remember a neighboring town, which was a total ghetto, was completely renovated.....new low income housing, beautiful landscaping, new school, etc. It was just gorgeous and I remember I commenting to my father that I wished we could live there. Fast forward three short years....this entire project, which cost the taxpayers millions, was covered in graffiti, windows smashed out, unlivable conditions inside the units.....it was the most unbelievable waste I had ever seen in my life. I remember wondering then, and still, what is it about blacks? Why do they not care about their neighborhoods?? Why are the majority of them so destructive?? I really wish I could understand this uncivilized behavior and why they continue to blame white people for the problems they create themselves???

It's caused by organized crime aka street gangs. Blacks living in those units were the first victims of gang's work..
