Please Join the City of Raleigh’s Rezoning meeting and let the decision making political power that be… know that our votes and voices matter.

This rezoning project does NOT support housing affordability and walkability for low income Black families and communities like Heritage Park. This project will only further homelessness, gentrification, displacement and the genocide of the Black community and Black culture. We must take action now…!!!

The City of Raleigh & Raleigh Housing Authority & Dorothea Dix stakeholders, developers and gentrifiers are the ones who will benefit from wiping another Black community off this side of the earth.

Furthermore, this project is being funded by the Dept of Transportation(our tax dollars) thus there are certain protections that our civil rights grant us.

We must hold the Federal government accountable to their laws and truth and not allow them to push more Black families out of their own community, just so the gentrifiers can ride the bus to their Destination Dog park.

Launch Day!

Today, the Wake County Housing Justice Coalition announces the launching of our website, November 6, 2021!

Major thanks to everyone who has followed our work since we started having a presence in the city and across the state via social media and in-person meetings and activities.

We hope you will continue to find us to be an informative source on housing issues as we bring out to the open who the hands of gentrifiers are and what they are doing to the communities.

In solidarity!

The Core Group of Wake County Housing Justice Coalition
