London, UK. Saturday 25th April 2015. With gentrification devastating Brixton’s famous character and community, local activists, residents and campaigners gathered for a ‘Reclaim Brixton’ protest. Organised to celebrate Brixton’s “community, its diversity, culture, life and resistance”. Social diversity is being driven out by lack of truly affordable housing. Local businesses by increasing rents and redevelopment schemes that benefit national & multinational rather than local businesses. Local spaces for people to meet, get support or education are being decimated as community groups, long-standing pubs, music venues, libraries & colleges are being relocated, repurposed, disappeared. Brixton’s vibrancy now has a question mark on it.
