How are Austin artists resisting, depicting-- and sometimes participating in-- gentrification? Come hear Michael Schliefke (author/artist of Tales of the Really White Vigilante), Shea Little (artist and co-founder of the East Austin Studio Tour), and Ben Reed (writer and former 'Accidental Gentrifist' columnist for the Austinist) talk about urban politics, what's going up and coming down on the east side, and what artists have to say about it.
Introductory remarks by Eliot Tretter, local urban geographer, dramatic reading, and discussion of what gentrification is doing to Austin.
