What is Gentrification? Is it good or bad? Does it occur outside the U.S.? These questions and more will be answered by Dr. Nia Reed this Friday. 

Dr. Reed, a Visiting Professor at Spelman, has extensively studied gentrification in Atlanta and focuses on public housing in a lot of her work. Currently, she teaches a course at Spelman entitled Gentrifying Atlanta, which assesses the process of gentrification in the Atlanta area, paying attention to recent demolitions of large-scale public housing.
