Hi Everyone, 

 

Hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy. Hong and I were talking
today about getting the meetings going again. We were hoping to suggest
Monday after work (5:30ish) as a new meeting time, since the next few
weekends seem pretty crazy already. And then maybe when we decide a time/date
to meet we can suggest the reading and get this going again :)

 

Let us know what you think. 

 

Best, 

 

Lina Shalabi

Subject: [Fight Gentrification!] Meeting last Saturday

 

Hi all: A little recap from last Saturday's get together: three of us got
together. 

 

1. None of us did the reading. 

 

2. We watched the Price of Renewal and discussed some of the issues that came
up from watching the movie: the issue of all of the businesses in the Urban
Village being corporate businesses, the pushing out of the local businesses
that were there before the Urban Village was built, the relationship of Price
to William Jones, Vien Dong grocery store and Murphy's market as very large
family businesses in City Heights, comparisons of Urban Village and Jacob's
Center redevelopment, and many other issues that came up in relationship to
business, residents, corporate power... 

 

3. The movie also brought up some historical instances that we want to learn
more about, such as the crime economic summit that happened in City Heights,
William Jones' business, as well as Proposition 13. 

 

Here is a Wikipedia site that I just found for Proposition 13: 

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Proposition_13_(1978)

 

We did not decide on when we would meet again or where. Anybody else who
wants to add something that we talked about or propose a time to meet, can
send it out to the list. --Michelle
