Yes, And...

Jess Ramirez, LC and Kalisto Zenda Nanen discuss gentrification as a lived experience that cannot be wrapped up into a single definition. The effects are intersectional and felt through generations of limited opportunities, erasing one’s sense of place, ownership and belonging. Presenting the question, “Who is making the sacrifice for your convenience?” they encourage people to think of the larger community and how individual decisions can deeply affect their neighbors. These guests also offer their perspectives on policy and individual actions with new mindsets aiming toward a greater level of self-awareness and compassion.
