Arturo Romo
Artist, Teacher, Community Organizer
Talks about two sides of Gentrification, landlords and tenants, historical relining and the segregated present. Arturo discusses Chicano local migration and his return to his grandparents house in Lincoln Heights, the former familial epicenter.

“When a community undergoes gentrification there is no place for working class people except to come back and work for the people that live there now.”
