Additional information
by Madeline Crowley (Interviewer)
Crowley interviews long-time residents of the Central Area, a historically redlined neighborhood that was one of the few places nonwhites could buy homes. Residents tell stories of working with the Black Panthers, becoming activists in the 1960s, and of building a thriving culture around church, music, and food. The neighborhood is going through rapid gentrification today, and many of these residents have been or will be displaced.
