Gentrification is a complex process that historically has created
dividing lines between the haves and have-nots. In urban renewal,
there are clear winners and losers as neighborhoods and districts
become revitalized. On the plus side, there is a reclamation and
preservation of grand historic buildings, homes and edifices
alongside renewed economic vitality. On the negative side,
gentrification means many minorities and lower-income families, who
for years had called the old neighborhood home, are getting pushed
to the urban periphery because they cannot afford to live there
anymore. In light of these competing if not contradictory values,
how should Christians respond? Is there a biblical and theological
foundation on which to build such a response? Vespas, Cafes,
Singlespeed Bikes, and Urban Hipsters takes a look beneath the
surface of this phenomenon to uncover and present a Christian
response to this city-changing movement.
