No Displacement Indianapolis. Neither physical or cultural displacement. Building a coalition for equitable developments & long term affordable housing.
Here’s the breakdown for those who dont understand the #AffordableHousingScam
(a thread)
Tax $$$ financed construction of affordable housing on the condition that the units be rented at low rates for a span of time (typically 20 yrs, as short as 5-10 yrs)
Time has ended...

Tour the new HQ for white supremacy & racism training the next day??? The CDC that sold out FS is moving on to colonize the next community. Don’t believe all the training when they still do the exact same shit
As if the @Elanco Global Day of Purpose wasn’t enough @IndyMayorJoe used Triangle Park to announce a 16.5 million dollar investment into our parks using funding from the American Rescue Plan. Indy Parks can expect much needed makeovers AND expanded WI-FI
Tonight - Fuck up the courts!! Every eviction is an act of violence and we want to stop gears of the eviction machine.
Some members of @KCTenants will be joining us too. ✊
We called. We emailed. We’ve done all the things we were supposed to do to ask nicely. We showed up and she still wouldn’t talk to us. She called the cops. We just wanted to talk to her for five minutes.
I don't get why people are can't see the zillow/PE homebuying spree and homeowner petty property speculation are part of the same system. They're both part of the positive feedback loop between increasing wealth inequality and increasing asset values. Facilitated by US policy.
@JATompkins Just out here calling out white supremacist partnerships and displacement rides. Don’t know wtf else you’re talking about. Maybe more luxury homes will help
Bike Indianapolis doing white tours in the near Eastside. Trying to move in more white people to tear down the area? With the CDC that had 4 board members resign over race problems. Here’s an affordable home if you’re rich enough!

The media spin cycle will have you thinking that the eviction crisis is over. No, it’s just getting worse. Here’s a young dad, evicted months ago, whose wages are now being garnished to pay down the eviction judgment. No matter how hard he works, he will never escape this trauma.
Did elanco write this? How will this project get to ANY of the issues Indy faces? @TheValleyNeigh1 does this account rep the n’hood or are you 2 people that want to revitalize all your poor neighbors out because they don’t meet your aesthetic
No one project can answer all the issues that will face cities moving into the future but the Valley/Elanco/GM project will make a real difference. Expanding downtown’s footprint with walkable, bikeable connectivity
Berlin has the right idea.
There will be a vote to “expropriate 240,000 properties from Germany’s biggest publicly listed residential landlords.”
Expropriation is good! Get these hundreds of thousands of homes back into public hands.
