Abstract:Historians, sociologists, and critical urbanists have long argued race and racial discourse are critical cultural levers used to validate contemporary gentrification schemes in urban centers. Applying a Black feminist materialist analysis to the case study of the recent gentrification wave in Washington, DC, this article adds and deepens this literature, tracing the definitive role gender plays in facilitating displacement and affordable housing inequities in gentrifying urban centers.
