That World Is Gone: Race and Displacement in a Southern Town (2010)

November 4, 2010 History, Documentary • 21m

Overview

Kathy's family left on a Saturday morning in 1965. The rumble of bulldozers echoed through the neighborhood, and her block was empty. Federally-funded urban renewal had arrived in Charlottesville, scattering dozens of families like Kathy's.
