The Anti-Eviction Mapping Project today released a new tool for evicted tenants to pin and publicize their sagas on a map of the San Francisco Bay Area.
“People can post directly on the website and geolocate the site that they are describing, whether it is the construction of new condos, or their displacement story,” spokesperson, anarchist and spandex-wearing-tech-bus-blocker Erin McElroy wrote in a statement. “Gentrification functions by obscuring people’s lives and experiences, and this tool is intended to help combat this process.”
