Matthew Desmond

Many times when we are talking about displacement, we talk about it within the frame of gentrification, which focuses on transitioning neighborhoods. But man, every city I’ve looked at, Milwaukee included, most evictions are right there, smack dab in ungentrifying, poor, segregated communities.

I am used to experiencing so much trauma, that when I see it, I have to speak out. I don’t think rappers have a responsibility, but if you don’t say something or be silent or avoid it, I believe it shows your true real character to the world. It’s like, if no one wants to rap about gentrification then I am going to fill that void!

Boots Riley

When we were doing shows in the mid-’90s, the audiences were 95% black. What’s happened now is the gentrification of hip-hop. A lot of cities passed ordinances that made it hard for black audiences to gather in large groups. Clubs are more open to hip-hop now ’cause it’s the same crowd that goes to rock shows.

– Boots Riley

Awkwafina

I have lived in this city my whole life and have seen the way gentrification has changed it. I’m not necessarily against transplants, as 75 percent of my good friends, roommate, and boyfriend are not native New Yorkers.

– Awkwafina
