Redlining, or policies that make it harder for people of color to obtain a mortgage or buy a property in certain neighborhoods, have existed in Seattle since the 20th century. The continued growth and expansion of Seattle and its skyrocketing rent prices has displaced people of color who have historically lived in the Central District. My guiding question is, “how can we use storytelling to empower the stories and experiences of the Black community in the Central District, all while acknowledging the city’s history?” Moreover, there are stories of resilience in communities that have been displaced by gentrification but aren’t not showcased in media outlets. Through interviews with community members, I hope to share stories about how the CD community have responded to gentrification with resilience."en-US
