  • How do we save the planet if we can’t protect our own people? In the Brooklyn neighborhood of Sunset Park, the community is coming together to fight gentrification and rising housing prices. Watch as Adan Palermo tells us the story of his work to protect their vibrant culture.
    The World We Need is a book offering a vivid look at the people protecting America’s communities against environmental degradation and racism. The Story of Stuff Project is partnering with Grist and The New Press to produce a short video series highlighting four phenomenal activists, the third of whom is Adan Palermo.

    In Australia renters have barely any rights -owning a property is everything - therefore it is easy for shady activity as well - this is one of the worst countries for money laundering through real estate! It is hard to build community in this situation because you are either in or out -....

    These stories are more common than one would think. I'm glad they're being told though. They need to. We need them to.

    By the time I have the money to visit New York, there won't be anything to visit. I want to eat where the various communities eat, I want to buy the groceries where they buy their food, I want to ride the trains they take to work, I don't want plastic made stuff, tourist attractions, it's not where people live.

    This is interesting.
    They finally decided that gov't dependence leaves them wallowing in misery and decided to get up and do what needed done for themselves.
    AND they are concerned about being displaced by outsiders and ideologies that don't foster community and pride.
    In short- they became conservatives. 🙂

    Do not leave. Make the banks go bankrupt.

      The best way to start the "not leaving. process" is ask a lot of questions . Who gave you the right to take my property? Why are you placing me in a life altering position? Show me your policy? Where is the original title or deed to the house? Please present original deed. Learn ask, keep asking until you get thru. Win!
