A owner of a night club had taken out his anger on three latino immigrants that had been drinking at his club. This speech talks about gentrification if it is a good or bad thing in places such as San Francisco. The speech rants on the racist situations that happen which are similar to the ones in San Francisco. By the end of the speech he makes it seem as gentrification is bad and situations that happened in San Francisco will happen more. ]]> 2018-10-25 18:55:22 UTC https://padlet.com/437125/5849t8ydq2uv/wish/297137122 Question 11: Because the negative impacts of gentrification described by Flores are so widespread, what should be done to combat them?

Poetry is a effective way to protest in a positive way because it reaches a different audience. To add on, it also is a great way  to reach an audience by getting into their emotions and does gain support. ]]> 2018-10-27 03:14:52 UTC https://padlet.com/437125/5849t8ydq2uv/wish/297607889 Group Name: 330607 https://padlet.com/437125/5849t8ydq2uv/wish/297608324 Brandon Vargas
