The documentary San Francisco 2.0 examines how San Francisco city officials have given tax breaks to the Silicon Valley tech industry to move to San Francisco. These new techs companies have brought in a lot of wealth to the city, but at a cost. The majority of the low-income natives are being evicted or having their rents raised so high that they can't afford them. The gentrification of the city has impacted low-income districts (for example, the mission district known for its Latin immigrants) that the residents and the culture are being displaced. I believe the documentary is important for the study of the issue of gentrification because San Fransisco was known for being-counter culture, caring for the arts and for civil progress. The housing

Gentrification has greatly changed the face of Oakland so far in the 21st century. New shops and people are moving in at record numbers, greatly increasing the median income of the city; however, many long-term residents are being evicted due to increasing property values and rent prices. Many are also outraged at the loss of Oakland’s strong cultural roots, but at the same time, in low income areas, crime rates have greatly reduced and academic performance has increased. This begs the question: In what ways has gentrification positively and negatively affected Oakland so far in the 21st century?

The gentrification and displacement debate is more controversial than ever in Oakland, California. You can see it everywhere from the outskirts of West Oakland to Lake Merritt, and all throughout East Oakland. There is no denying its strong prevalence throughout the city and the reverberation of both negative and positive effects it brings with it. Oakland was once notorious for violence and its high crime rates and now it has become an up-and-coming hot spot for newly affluent and mostly white residents while pushing out low-income African American and Latino residents.

The San Francisco, California, Bayview-Hunters Point district carries the stigma of being a ghetto because of issues such as a lack of education, poverty, crime, and disease, which push financial investors away and lowers the number of homeowners willing to occupy the area. Today, the district is faced with the task of redeveloping its housing, economy, parks, and streets after decades of strife. This report is written in the context of urbanization of Bayview-Hunters Point that began during 19th-century livestock slaughter housing and carried on through 20th-century industrialism. The San Francisco Naval Shipyard project was an initiative made by the United States Navy during World War II in a bid to house thousands of new employees and their

Hayes Valley is currently known for having tons of new and hip boutiques, restaurants, bars and has been recently one of San Francisco’s hotspots for art installations. Situated about three blocks away from Civic Center and about four blocks from Market, Hayes Valley offers a quiet escape for local San Franciscans who want to splurge on fine dining and clothing in contrast to other commercial parts of San Francisco filled with tourist. By no means is Hayes Valley’s commercial neighborhood only for locals, it attracts tons of tourist day by day, but in comparison to most of the other neighborhoods in the city, Hayes Valley is a modest destination t that has gone through a drastic change in the last two decades.

Language and culture are interconnected. The matter of how they are intertwined vary according to history and culture. Such variations are important to recognize when analyzing the effects of pivotal periods in history such as settler colonialism. Settler colonialism was a dark period in history and must continuously be recognized for its disturbing chronicle of events. The impacts of settler colonialism still reverberate today. Such impacts can be understood through the direct survivors of settler colonialism. In other words, indigenous nations. Despite centuries of attempted elimination, their presence continues to persevere. This does not exclude its losses, however. Many indigenous communities undergo threats of disappearing languages. Each indigenous language is affected by settler colonialism differently. So, for this research, the focus will be on the Nuu-chah-nulth language, which is spoken in the Nuu-chah-nulth region. Significance: Currently, about ten percent of the Nuu-chah-nulth population speak the native language, while even fewer speak fluently. Thus, understanding what circumstances lead to this dilemma may contribute

           From a tourist perspective, San Francisco is gold, but beyond the golden hills and the high amount of bays are a boatload of issues that are not obvious by just looking at pictures. For one, there is an obvious difference in the poor and the rich and, by obvious, I mean there are people sleeping on the same sidewalks the rich have their Porsche parked. This is mainly due to the gentrification that goes on in San Francisco. Gentrification is the process of buying and renovating homes and businesses in an area to suit the taste

The Diary of Lady Nijo during the 13th and 14th centuries of early tradition Japan provides a primary account of what life was like for a female from the time 1271 to 1306. Lady Nijo’s life is one of sadness and suffering. As the daughter of Masatada Koga, Lady Nijo gives us a personal account of how women in court life had to conduct themselves and highlights the conduct between female and male in early traditional Japan. After losing her mother at age two and her father at fifteen, she is raised under the Retired Emperor Gofukakusa. Lady Nijo is powerless at times to the wills and wants of those in the court family. Her role as a woman during the time period shows the reader just how arduous life was for a female during the time period. Lady Nijo had a certain role she had to conform to because of the circumstances she endured. Lady Nijo’s relationship with not only the retired Emperor, Gofukakusa, but a high court official Akebono, as well as Ariake, Gofukakusa’s half-brother and a Buddhist monk made her appear as more of a pawn. Lady Nijo bears children with all of these men previously mentioned, and as her life

You did a very good job about the details on the Kingdom of Nubia. I totally agree with some of your points about Nubian's culture and lifestyle. I would like to add some information that I think you left out. The Nubians were very unique people, they were very different in many aspects when compared to the other cultures in World History. They were located in the southern, and their lifestyle were influenced by the Egyptians. They later set up a new Kingdom called "Kush", and developped a great trading network focusing more on gold. They did not have an official religion at that time, but they did have temples with Egyptian God. Though they did reach their highest level of political power as the Nubians established the 25th dynasty

Nonetheless, Brooklyn is a notable example of how gentrification can change how an area is perceived and changes when gentrification begins to occur. As previously mentioned, a combination of both an influx of people returning to live in New York who elected to live in the suburbs previously and rent increases in trendy Manhattan neighborhoods caused for some to look elsewhere. Places very close to Manhattan such as Williamsburg and Brooklyn Heights become affordable options. As more middle class people move into what was then a working class area the culture and amenities shifted. In Brooklyn and New York in general this was seen through the arrival of coffee shops, artists’ studios and boutique restaurants and the closure of local establishments. The main issue with neighborhoods changing in this way in addition to the erasure of a community is the physical displacement which occurs when those working class residents can no longer afford to live in these areas. With the arrival of gentrifies comes rent hikes when the area becomes a trendy place to be, as was the case with Williamsburg and Brooklyn heights by the late 80s. These residents of lesser means are then pushed further into other neighborhoods. The other mentioned aspect, the erasure of a culture which was already living there is one which needs mentioning as well. In the case of Brooklyn, filmmaker

One interesting neighborhood is California Heights, located on the northside of the city. There is a beautiful mural representing its Art Deco history when entering this vibrant community. Since it is bike friendly, take a ride with the family or walk to explore it.

Your experience of failure is actually very common in many professional environments. Some efforts or programs are more effective, some get phased-out and lose traction; similar to your situation. The most important part is that you took responsibility and accepted the challenge. At this point, it sounds like you have learned your lesson. For sure, your next review release will become a huge success.

Nonetheless, technology advances in gentrification can also have a negative effect on the populus. Gentrification has as well negatively impacted San Francisco and how in the past years countless of citizens complained, protested and stood against the process of gentrification. In San Francisco, many neighborhoods such as Venice and Playa
