How yall feel about gentrification in Chicago?

At the moment they are just testing the waters with the poor communities, hasn't really hit middle class yet.

My bet is they waiting for the older black owners to die off then gonna get aggressive with it. I've actually caught some idiots from the bank stalking my grandma's house every so often to see if she ain't dead yet, ole vulture ass nikkas.

We collectively allowed it to happen by having zero codes of conduct nor systems of punishments & rewards. :manny: fukk how we FEEL. :ld:

  • I just dont play that 'huck-a-buck,' woe-is-me, hat-in-hand sambo crying shyt. We made our beds (with these fatherless/unguided youths) and now the oven is going to get extremly HOT!!!!! :whew:

I don't think that gentrification on the south side would be bad simply because there is so much vacant land and abandoned housing, that existing people would not have to be displaced. this is NOT how it is on the north side and near west sides.
