On today’s Talk of the Bay, at 5PM host Meilin Obinata introduces you to Youth Against Displacement, a grassroots organization which racked up multiple rounds of victories against gentrification and displacement of long-time residents in the real estate capital of America, New York City, regardless of Mayors Bill de Blasio and Eric Adams. How do the issues of affordable housing, small businesses, workers’ rights, zoning limits on building heights, stealing workers’ wages to build luxury towers, identity politics, the role of academia in forming narratives and even the emotions of burnout and misplaced guilt all collide in Chinatown and the Lower East Side? Tune in, today, August 7th at 5PM, for Talk of the Bay, right here on KSQD and also available now as a podcast.
