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.”

Mayra,  Esteticista/Peluquera
En un día soleado y caluroso, Mayra, mi peluquera que he visitado tres veces consecutivos, describe un poco de su experiencia emigrando a, viviendo, y trabajando en Lincoln Heights. Habla a cerca de como la afecto el cambio en la economía, por que ya no vive en el vecindario pero sigue trabajando aquí. Y luego empieza a entrevistarme a mi y hablar más a fondo de su trabajo de caridad y posible plan de regresar a su país de origen, Honduras.
