....Mr. Buntin's arguement is simply wrong..."]]> 2016-12-21 01:45:06 UTC https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144542156 Velsey's argument is that Buntin fails to understand that gentrification is a problem to the poor. 322113 https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144542611 The population of whites has increased throughout the last twelve years by thirteen percent. An increase of wealthy and white can cause an effect to the minority like colored people. The white increase has shrunken blacks by fifteen percent. There has also been an increase of homeless and hunger related problems, there are nearly 60,000 homeless in the city of New York.]]> 2016-12-21 01:59:57 UTC https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144542611 Velsey uses data to counter Buntin's argument on positive effects of gentrification. 322113 https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144544072 She compares prices from the past twelve years to now that there are more whites in New York. "At the same time, median household income rose from $44,987 to $56,436..." She also shows reports of the population changing. "...The black population dropped from 40,000 to 34,000 and the white population increased from 2,000 to 18,000 people..."]]> 2016-12-21 02:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144544072 professor_weedington https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144548656 Kim Velsey, the author of the article, provides information as to why John Buntin, author of a recent Slate article, claim about how Gentrification is a myth is completely incorrect. She uses information from his article, to clarify things in her argument to, in a way, make it an easier to understand piece of writing.]]> 2016-12-21 06:11:51 UTC https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144548656 professor_weedington https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144634827 2016-12-21 19:40:09 UTC https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144634827 3247911 https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144635746 2016-12-21 19:48:32 UTC https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144635746 3247911 https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144636139 2016-12-21 19:53:03 UTC https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144636139 professor_weedington https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144636383 2016-12-21 19:56:04 UTC https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144636383 3247911 https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144636447 2016-12-21 19:56:42 UTC https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144636447 Names 322113 https://padlet.com/322113/k19tvv4qfs2z/wish/144636895 Lizette R.
