Basically what the title says. I live in a major city and I’m watching all my favorite local bars, family owned restaurants, and small businesses disappear one by one in favor of price gouged grocery stores and apartments no one can afford. It’s so sad. I don’t want to read books just about how gentrification works or anything like that. I’m living through it. I want to make positive changes and help build more community in my area. Stuff like hosting events and starting local businesses interests me more. I’m looking for non-fiction books specifically, but I’m open to open writing format! Essays and fictional works are completely on the table.
