19 - The Cycle of Displacement w/ Alexia Isais

Gentrification, just like any other political topic, has been unfortunately co-opted by many people in the so-called liberal left. Becoming a political buzzword in many circles, the word has been devoid of its true meaning. To bring light to the issue, we recorded a special interview with our comrade from PSL Phoenix, Alexia Isais, to discuss her recently-published article that covered the true consequences that gentrification has had on the working class in Tempe, Arizona.
