Description

From pricedoutmovie.com: Priced Out is an investigative and personal look at housing discrimination and the pain of losing a community. The feature-length documentary explores the complexities and contradictions of gentrification. It illustrates how government policies and market forces that favor the rich work together to destroy and rebuild neighborhoods. And while many neighborhoods embrace new investment at first, few will be left standing once new money moves in and old residents find themselves increasingly priced out.

Please join us for this film screening followed by Q & A with filmmaker Cornelius Swart.

This film screening takes place at the Architectural Heritage Center - 701 SE Grand Avenue
