People In Brixton Speak About Gentrification! | Street Interview | ON THE ROAD | MAKE IT COMMON

It's sad what the last man said, money and community cannot co-exist. I think they can to a certain extent, or else or else how can communities develop? 🤔

[@rjflores438]

Its a social class thing as much as anything. I grew up both Manchester and London when I was a kid and teenager and I remember especially in Manchester, seeing a lot of middle and even upper middle class university students from affluent areas in the South of England moving up to Manchester and not interacting with the locals at all, and living in their own bubble.

Brixton was a West Indian/Caribbean community not an African community. The main African community was in Peckham. And, the Spanish have not moved in.. the Latin American community plus other communities have moved in.

Nonsense all areas in England were English..

[@healthwealthhappiness4568]

@@mickparkinson207 My comment was referring to what the shop-keeper said. Obviously, all areas were English before 😜

[@TsarOfTheStar]

Was white before that..

Makes areas safer, improves services and helps migrated cultures inter-grate. Lack of integration only causes resentment, anger and retreating into a false victimhood narrative in the western world.

[@sunrise2148]

You mean you can't improve an area without integrating, imposition and taxing the locals out?
Injustice and mistreatment cause resentment and anger...for the disenfranchised. Not sure what causes resentment and anger for the "privileged".

@@sunrise2148 for CENTURIES BEFORE there was more than a handful of black migrants in the UK including Brixton, there were native white English people!
You cannot improve any area when you displace native white English for African, South American,middle eastern near east migrants without integrating them. Those cultures are far more violent, far more suffering schizophrenia, psychopathy and pathological lying. Two prime examples South African and Zimbabwe. No African culture as yet is able to even maintain a developed modern city, ALL REQUIRE OTHER CULTURES ASSISTANCE! every area on EARTH where folks of sub Saharan ancestry have migrated they turn those areas into demonstrable dangerous violent areas that innocent children are forced to endure. Might only have 3% Ghanaian ancestry but that 3% is sick and tired of people making excuses and infantilising African folks. No culture/population group can evolve move forward when they are allowed to avoid ANY ACCOUNTABILITY!
White women/ liberals are evil power empowering that sick victimhood mentality/grift on black western communities.. No human can eve a stable productive adult when infantilised it creates resentment and resentment, it’s like a gangrene.

The young man of color is well-informed and puts himself across as knowing the history of the area and the changes and patterns 👏😊in history and culture ......

All those who rep the post code SW9...etc where are they now with money to truly say they rep the endz. In all seriousness it should be made common to buy up the endz. Even if you can find ways to buy up and own your flat or even the land on it. We got to find ways.

Instead of CRACKING the place & people out....

[@devogrant2817]

absolutely it's a little more complex the Windrush generation had a stronger identity of who they were and what they had to do my generation dropped the ball in finding themselves and what they should have done i am one of them.....
