"If like you are missing a Rage Against the Machine element in the world, then form a band. What's on your mind? It's your time - do it. Don't sit around waiting, you're wasting life if you're waiting for some bands to emerge from the shadows to save you, it's your time to pick up a guitar or a turntable or whatever or Ableton or whatever it is, and have your say." - Tom Morello ...

Along with the reality of gentrification, and the system's upheaval of the very residents who created a desirable environment in the first place, is the tragedy that artists and creatives are not respected for the value they bring to a community. Creators like Sintex Graffiti are the breath and life of this community. Activists like Allied Media Projects have long worked to protect those very artists and the residents of this community.

In the end, the economics of gentrification can pit natural allies against each other in the ongoing struggle to survive. ... See MoreSee Less

The evictions follow a host of other studio spaces for artists – including the Russell Street Industrial Center – that have closed, sold or displaced artists, said Sintex a well-known Detroit graffiti artist who used to live and work in the Grand River incubator. “The growth of Detroit has forced artists to definitely hustle more. Instead of everyone being in the city, they are spread out more, to suburbs like Hazel Park,” said Sintex, who was born Brian Glass. “...
