You Decide with Errol Louis


Mar 17, 2022

Majora Carter, an urban revitalization strategist from the South Bronx, argues that gentrification starts when people don’t see the value in their own neighborhoods. That’s why her approach to community development is centered on creating incentives to encourage successful people to stay in the low-income areas they grew up in. She joins Errol to talk about her new book: “Reclaiming Your Community: You Don’t Have to Move Out of Your Neighborhood to Live in a Better One,” where she outlines her strategies to create prosperous local economies and shares her experiences going up against what she calls the “non-profit industrial complex.”
