Gentrification

Through a participatory action research (PAR) collective engaged in Critical Studyin' for Human Freedom praxis, this article discusses how urban education reform and gentrification in Atlanta have intersected to create the perfect collision of housing and educational displacement of Black students, Black families, and Black teachers.

Using Temple University in Philadelphia, and University of California Santa Cruz as case studies, this article examines how students, faculty, and other university actors are joining with organizations and movements in surrounding communities to resist restructuring and displacement.
