Rising Rents, Property Reassessments, & Developers are displacing residents of the city of Buffalo to even more underdeveloped, unfamiliar, and socially decrepit areas.  This urban ethnic cleansing is affecting primarily black, hispanic, and nonwhite individuals who have been deemed as unworthy of the protections ascribed to them by federal and state laws.  Who is responsible? How can we stop them?

The key players in the displacement of the cities residents are politicians, who have risen to power with the help of these same residents, as well as foreign slumlords, local housing initiatives, and an ineffectient housing court system.  A vast majority of our city dwellers are from economically disadvantaged and impoverished backgrounds.  We are seeing their effective illegal removal from their residences in the interest of corporate profits and political capital.  Our cities politicians, including the Common Council, have approved and green-lit the seige of impoverished areas via multi-phase projects wherein they are aware of and have commissioned the clearing out of unfavorable populations of their voting constituents.  Who is speaking for and protecting our interests when we have community groups and outreach initiatives that are funded and conceived by these same corporate entitites?   The question of displacement is no longer if, but when it will happen.

Join us for another episode of Black Buffalo Radio to discuss this pressing issue and resolve to stop allowing the human rights of the ethnic majorities in our city to be illegally violated!
