@oni_blackstock Again, on. point. 🎯 I remember all the hullabaloo when they stopped the drum circles + DJs in the park. THIS IS THE SLOW VIOLENCE OF #GENTRIFICATION. You really talkin some truth serum this week, @oni_blackstock!

Precisely. If you break this down further by #NYC neighborhood and calendar month, most 311 calls are made IN the summer and IN gentrified/gentrifying ‘hoods. So pls don’t tell me this is abt general public safety

Friendly(?) Reminder: #ClimateChange is climate-changing. This is not a drill #NYC 🥹

"For many Black families, the loss of property stripped by deceit, violence or using eminent domain — and often sold below market prices — was relegated to bittersweet memories and cautionary tales." nytimes.com/2023/06/08/us/…

The class divide w/i Black neighborhoods can be a thing. As Blk folks become more mobile, should it be a problem? Who qualifies as a #transplant v. #gentrifier? Interesting take on Blk #gentrification in #NYC - what it is (or isn’t) + what it looks like in #Brooklyn.

Hate that I wrote about this 2 years ago and here we are. #Evictions are skyrocketing; filings today are over 50% higher than pre-pandemic averages in some cities, mainly impacting Blk/Brwn folks #PublicHealth #AffordableHousing #HousingTwitter #NYC ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/abs/10.210…

“Radical” is used at least twice in this piece but A. Joseph is anything but. Interesting framing. It’s telling that efforts (legal or otherwise) to #StopCopCity + #environmental #racism + resist police occupation in Blk working-class neighborhoods is “radical.”

Speaking of #StopCopCity + #racism I wrote a thing doubling down on the notion that state-led #displacement + #gentrification + #environmentalism are *still* very much connected. liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/en…

Who wants to come and do research with us Uni Manchester Sociology @uomsociology.bsky.social and @MUARG on #ageing in place in #urban environments? This is a great postdoc opportunity. Please share widely. Deadline 20 Feb.

Turns out, whiteness is equal-opportunity toxicity. Name it. Happy Fri! @ClaraLWilkins Caroline Efird, PhD, MPH @spssi spssi.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jo…

Racism Kills. This JAMA study in Black women shows an association between racism and connectivity in brain pathways 🧠involved with rumination leading to increased vulnerability in developing stress-related disorders & neurodegenerative diseases. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

"Framing today’s housing crisis involves understanding the political and economic motivations for public housing development and for whom it was designed," writes H. Shellae Versey on @Blkperspectives. loom.ly/cwrvYqY

"Black communities are frequently depicted as helpless victims of poor urban conditions; at the same time, women in these communities have always been a source of stewardship, caretaking, community development, and organizing."-- H. Shellae Versey aaihs.org/black-women-pu…
