We're on the blood path now
Not even just hipsters though. Corporate culture/big business is to blame imo
Ayo niccas wasn't exaggerating about this Brooklyn Gentrification
- Thread starter DMGAINGREEN
- Start date
Yup I imagine its moreso Yuppie culture than Hipster culture. All in all these cacs are like soul sucking culture vulturing zombies
Gentrification wouldnt be a problem if there wasnt any racial undercurrent to it. Big Cities live to appease whites, while not giving a single fukk about the minorities that the city was built upon.

Breh, all these hipsters been moving to Williamsburg for all of the 2000's... the 90's have nothing to do with this.
People have been tracking the gentrification of Williamsburg for the last 15 years breh.

When I grew up there, Williamsburg was strictly Jewish. When was it ever black?I'm on Williamsburg as we speak from my jack , and I'm surrounded by cacs . I dead ain't expect this . These cats looking at me on some
type shyt as if I'm not allowed or I'm an outsider
I'm debating with my boy if we should snuff them ...

Them hipsters are some disgustingly racist ass crackers breh. Like they came up in towns that were damn near 100% white. They don't answer to blacks or Spanish folks. And they don't want to.that's why i laugh when coli nikkas on here try to defend NYC amidst this mass gentrification with more often then not, RACIST hipster devils
i hail from uptown and the cac-invasion has me literally like
brooklyn has gone to the dogs...unless i guess you live in ENY or Coney
Like I went to get my hair cut at my usual spot on Marcy Ave a couple of days ago. White hipsters living there and dodging and weaving from the direction of black folks like it was a fukking game of frogger...they don't want any parts of the community until it becomes white enough for their liking.

Oh yeah...it's been a powder keg that started in the late 90s.
All the poor white artists that were living in the lower east side of manhattan back then started moving down to Williamsburg and driving up prices when they eventually got priced out. Then it was the gays...then everybody else followed suit.

The act of gentrification, has been happening since people started living in cities.
Gentrification as we know it, is only is a problem when whites displace poor blacks and latinos.
But when blacks and latinos gentrify, we don't talk about it...we don't praise it.. we overlook it.
Idk, why u asking me?

It's about both. You can't separate one without the other. It's literally impossible.
Shut the fukk up and know what your talking about. Back then it wasnt called Gentrification. It was called WHITE FLIGHT, whites were moving on their own accord. Out of fear, racial and economical, when blacks moved in the property value "magically" would go down, and lack of basic amenities (education,safety,etc) would go up. Cacs aint wanna be around nikkas so they hightailed they ass to the burbs.
What is going on nowadays is Minorities, politically and economically getting bamboozled and priced out of their home's

When do blacks and Latinos gentrify neighborhoods?
I hate to burst yo bubble breh...but by definition blacks and Latinos cannot be described or assigned as gentrifiers. Simply because they are not a gentry class. To be a gentry class you have to have generational wealth, assets, trust funds, population, numbers, etc...Black and Spanish people cannot do this and don't have these resources nor do they own the property en mass they stay in hence the reason they are getting kicked out and pushed out so easily.
Whites are the premier gentry class. Stop.

trying to process the stupidity and historical obliviousness of this dumb ass nikka
if you don't understand the racial underpinnings of white gentrification in american cities and its disregard for the existing culture in conjunction with its economic ramifications, then don't speak on it.
Actually, this is not exactly correct. The problem is that you are looking at one of the largest cities in the world in where it will be extremely difficult for minorities to take control of an area.
Many hispanics have made their own neighborhoods in small to mid sized cities. I have had this conversation with many many people before and the mindset so many people in NYC have is completely backwards. Most minorities in NYC do not OWN, they LIVE there, but they don't OWN. Once the interests shift, it's all going to the highest bidder and one can't really blame the landowners trying to capitalize.
@DEAD7 has all the answers.
new york posters??? so where are the blacks/latinos moving to since brooklyn/harlem has change... down south?? jersey?

@smokeurobinson it is literally impossible to ignore the racial undercurrent behind gentrification. Literally. White people in America control all the businesses, the economy, the money, etc. Might as well call it racial displacement or whitewashing. These neighborhoods seem to be becoming more diverse but they are actually becoming less diverse and more white and the changes in the neighborhood reflect it...more cops, more corporate retailers that would be easily found in flyoverland usa, etc.
