How do we navigate questions around staying to resist, versus relocating to find home — in a time when certain places may no longer feel safe for certain bodies? What might it look like to push back against gentrification as a community? And how do we confront the complicity of our entanglement in systems of oppression, extraction, and displacement?
In this episode, Green Dreamer’s Kaméa Chayne speaks with Solaris J. Capehart, a Liberian poet who works alongside their neighbors to nurture The Garden Abolitionist Bookstore & Community Well.
Join us as we explore how gentrification is wrapped up in particular ideals of advancement and particular visions of quality of life that are not neutral; how we can continue showing up for ourselves and our communities during precarious times; and more.
