Transcript of ¡Humboldt Park No Se Vende!
Since 2004, our efforts are geared at challenging gentrification and preventing the displacement of Chicago’s oldest Puerto Rican community. We hope to engage residents in a serious dialogue meant to insert longtime residents into the process of building the future of Humboldt Park.
Community residents have stood up and spoken against gentrification in their community and had their voices heard through various community events…
If you do not take a stance against gentrification, we will LOSE THE ONLY Puerto Rican community in Chicago…
Where will Puerto Ricans reflect on our collective
memory?
History?
Cultura?
Efforts to preserve Paseo Boricua and Humboldt Park are ongoing.
If you want to get involved or support the campaign, please visit our booth during Fiesta Boricua on
Sunday, September 6, 2009 (Noon-9PM).
We will be in front of the Batey
Urbano located at 2620 W. Division St.
We will have “I Love Humboldt Park” t-shirts, Humboldt Park NO
SE VENDE buttons, stickers, games, and more!
