race and gentrification

yes, gentrification occurs when wealthy individuals redevelop a poor neighborhood.

in urban areas in the us, this affects minority populations who are disproportionately poor. 

the dispersal of poor urban communities tends to be the dispersal of minority communities.

gentrification is a cause of concern for minority -- urban -- poor communities.
