    "Our community is being torn from us. This was the starting point for me and my family. We have dreams that we were working towards until we learned of the “redevelopment”. I put my plans on hold to figure how I could keep going and deal with this devastating news. I work for a non profit grassroots organization that is helping the community fight for our homes. We are being displaced daily to places we don’t like and feel hopeless in. "
