My Brooklyn and Fate of a Salesman | Promo

From Brooklyn, NY to Washington, D.C., urban neighborhoods are "improving" but at what cost to those who have been living and working there? The two documentaries, My Brooklyn and Fate of a Salesman tell of the many challenges (displacement, identity) and future for the people and small businesses facing gentrification in their communities.
