Gentrification is the process of removing poor people from a community due to an increase in capitalist investments. In the United States in the 1950s and 1960s, 300,000 households were forcefully displaced so the land they lived on could be used by capitalists. Women, Black people, and transgender people are disproportionately affected by gentrification.[1]
