Well I’ve been having issues uploading everything to blogspot, put I think I have it under control now, so uploading everything now!
I thought the reading from Root Shock was really interesting. The urban renewal projects did not turn out well at all. City blocks that were once vibrant turned to vacant lots. Homes were bulldozed, and the “renewal” took place. The effects of this shock have impacted these communities. This federal program destroyed MANY neighborhoods in different cities. This caused the residents to move into different neighborhoods.
I enjoyed the first person accounts and the stories about the people, families and communities. It really showed you vividly how the “urban renewal” process devastated these cities
