This morning, an email arrived from "Race Related," attaching a story about gentrification in the historically black South Park neighborhood of Raleigh, North Carolina.
According to the article's author, Emily Badger [emphasis added throughout]:
"A few new homes rise high above the modest, single-story properties around them. Those houses, some longtime residents lament, feel so large that they evoke plantation homes, complete with second-story porches an overseer might use to keep an eye on the black residents nearby."
https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb...smallish-homesBadger toured the neighborhood with a black "fair housing advocate" Octavia Rainey who clearly doesn't like the trend of white gentrification. She pointed at a neon green door and said: “The colorful door means white homeownership.” The headline is "Unlocking the (Neon Green) Door to Gentrification."
