Gentrification and subsequent displacement are common problems in cities, and result in the removal of poor communities and communities of color from urban areas as they move to cheaper locations in the metropolitan region. Here we describe a community-based approach to redevelopment by historic Black churches that seeks to counter such displacement and cultural removal. We explain the history of a historically Black neighborhood in Seattle and the founding and rationale for a church-led project called the Nehemiah Initiative. Our perspective is that of participants in the work of the Nehemiah Initiative and as faculty and students from a local university partner supporting it. We conclude with policy strategies that can be used to support such redevelopment in Seattle, with understanding that some may be broadly applicable to other cities.

遏制流离失所:通过历史悠久的黑人教堂进行的社区重建

绅士化和随后的流离失所是城市中的普遍问题,并导致贫困社区和有色社区在城市地区转移到较便宜的地点时从城市地区移走。在这里,我们描述了以社区为基础的历史悠久的黑人教堂重建的方法,旨在应对这种流离失所和文化迁移。我们将解释西雅图一个历史悠久的黑人社区的历史,以及一个由教会主导的名为“尼希米倡议”的项目的成立和理由。我们的观点是参加“尼希米倡议”工作的参与者,以及来自当地大学合作伙伴的教职员工。我们以可以用来支持西雅图的此类再开发的政策策略作为结束,但要了解一些策略可能广泛适用于其他城市。
