i studied urban planning while being a homeless beggar and trans woman activist... i know some shit about that city.
furthermore, i know what its like to be part of the culture that the new hipster techies just love to be around because they can say to the ppl back home "my neighborhood is so weird and i love it", and the culture they take part in displacing because they get social capital from us (minorities) yet we get our homes stolen, prices raised, and their politics taking over.
