Kelly Anderson, director, “My Brooklyn: Race, Real Estate and the Future of Cities.”
Kelly Anderson screened her film “My Brooklyn: Race, Real Estate and the Future of Cities” at Syracuse University for about 100 people on Monday. The documentary tackles salient urban issues such as reverse red-lining, spacial wars, up-zoning and available v. affordable real estate.
The film exposes the gentrification of the borough that Anderson calls home, and features interviews with politicians and community activists. The work of NYC photographer Jamel Shabazz appears throughout the narrative (especially his vintage 80’s shots). Shabazz is also interviewed in the film and talks about historic properties such as the Albee Square Mall.
