Gentrified – Ethnic Cleansing: American Style (Film Trailer)

“Is it ‘redevelopment’ . . . or ethnic cleansing?

‘Gentrified’ is the first documentary ever to take an in-depth look at the effects of gentrification and provide statistical and social evidence that it targets the Black community in particular. When big business and big govt conspire to create so-called “redevelopment” it always leaves a richer, all white neighborhood in its wake. The old, Black residents are left to their own devices which include poverty and homelessness.

In ‘Gentrified’, we travel across the United States and interview activists, entrepreneurs and academics to give a brutally honest look at the way the entire country, and even the world, is being reshaped by the process of gentrification. In the 21st century the ‘haves’ are removing the ‘have-nots’ and it’s time we saw who they were.

They’re rich. They’re white . . . and they’re coming for everything you’ve got.

A special UK screening will be followed by a panel discussion in London on February 18th at 6pm at the Hackney Attic.

Gentrified “Ethnic Cleansing American Style” (Official Theater Trailer)

You cant ignore the racial divide across this country and you cant disregard the financial divide as well. Whether it is large metropolitan cities like New York, LA as well as mid level cities like Nashville & Birmingham the divide can be seen.  Mainstream media has ignored how the best school systems end up on one side of the city along with better places to shop at.  Or how areas that were predominantly black and low income get taken over by non black Americans along with new industry and better security following as well.

Black Channel Films decided to stop waiting for the mainstream to tell the story of Gentrification “Ethnic Cleansing American Style”.  This is a powerful film that will be released later this year.  We will keep you updated here at Jayforce.com on the release and theaters it will play in across the country.  We will definitely be at the Atlanta screening. The film has already been shot but you can get involved with helping to market and advertise the film with contributing to their indiegogo campaign.  Make sure you witness the story that the national media has ignored!

Black Channel Films: “Gentrified – Police, Money & Ethnic Cleansing” (Documentary Trailer)

The Black Channel Films is working on a documentary that goes in depth about the true underlying effects of Gentrification. So much is happening within the Black community today it’s hard to keep track of all the issues.  Police officers have come into our communities and murdered black men and women with no repercussions.  How can this happen?  We don’t see these murders happening in the Asian community.  It’s not apparent in the Arab or Latino community but prevalent with Black people.  You cant point at just one location either.  Think about this St. Louis, New York, Cincinnati, Charleston, Minneapolis, Baltimore, Baton Rouge, Oakland are just some of the cities where black men and women were murdered.  So it’s not just the East Coast, West Coast, Midwest or the South it is all over.  One consistent thing is in none of these major cities there are no true black owned communities.  We also know that a number of Blacks are being funneled out of certain areas in these cities.  The term Gentrified is commonly used and most think it is just simply moving out of a neighborhood.  It goes much deeper than that and this film will connect the dots on all the different players involved in Gentrification.  Be on the lookout for when this film comes out and we will keep you updated on Jayforce.com.

Explaining how police are allowed to intimidate and even kill to remove Blacks from cities, this clip from the upcoming documentary “Gentrified” features NYC City Council Candidate Thomas Lopez-Pierre with narration by Jason Black
