An Against the Grain Interview with Prof. Jay Arena

In this Against the Grain interview, about 50 minutes, Jay Arena outlines the process of destroying public housing in New Orleans and more broadly across the country, with particular attention to the roles played by not for profit organizations and black elites carrying out the neoliberal agenda of gentrification.

This interview was broadcast recently on KPFA Berkeley, and can be found online, with hundreds more like it at Against the Grain Radio, http://againstthegrain.org.
