1 Displacement: A History of U.S. Cities from Urban Renewal to Gentrification Instructor: Morris Speller Department of History Johns Hopkins University Bulldozer in Mill Creek neighborhood, St. Louis, Mo. From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, March 15, 1959.
2 Office Hours: Wednesdays in Gilman 346 Contact: Course Description: Through the theme of displacement this course explores urban reforms and strategies over the twentieth century ranging from slum clearance to community development which have sought to improve housing conditions, strengthen neighborhoods, and improve public health in cities. Unfortunately, and sometimes inadvertently, such development schemes have often led to mass evictions or relocations and a concentration of many of the conditions, such as overcrowding or substandard housing, they were supposed to alleviate. Important questions this course will explore include: How are city neighborhoods constructed? Who should they serve and how? What have been the strategies of grassroots activists to avoid displacement and how successful have they been? How and to what extent have community development organizations responded to the legacy of racial discrimination in urban neighborhoods? As the final reading in our course asks, Can a City Ever Have Major Redevelopment Without Displacement? We begin the course by exploring the theory of gentrification. Originally an academic term, gentrification became a part of popular U.S. vocabulary in the late seventies and early eighties, particularly as it was adopted by neighborhood activist groups. While some argue the proliferation of meanings for the term gentrification have rendered the term meaningless, activist usage has opened new ways to understand gentrification through more explicitly racial, global, and post-colonial frames. Aside from the introductory theory week, the first portion of the class will focus primarily on Baltimore. The readings of the course are designed to consider multiple actors who have a role in the shaping neighborhoods and cities including: tenants, landlords, real estate agents, developers, homeowners, and activists. Baltimore was among the first cities to develop zoning, urban planning, and real estate practices which were later adopted on a national scale. These readings will consider the historical relationships between race and class segregation and the construction of property value. We will use these readings to help us to read and contextualize a collection of photographs and surveys held at the Baltimore City Archives. This archive is the result of a survey process the Housing Authority of Baltimore City undertook in neighborhoods where it was considering slum clearance. The first two written assignments will focus on reading these sources critically and developing a better understanding of the conditions in these communities before they were displaced. The remainder of the course considers the role of industry and state policy, versus the tastes of individuals, in urban decline, revitalization, and uneven development. This unit also builds on the growing literature on mass incarceration as yet another form of displacement of urban residents, particularly black and brown youth, with detrimental implications for their families and urban neighborhoods. The final portion of the class explores our current moment, the post-2009 Housing Crisis, and future visions for more just cities.

5 Written assignments: Weekly In-Class Writing Responses: During each class, you will be asked to spend 5-10 minutes responding to a prompt drawn from the readings. These writing exercises should help you reflect on readings or explore a topic or theme to be shared in class discussion. These are a part of your participation grade. If you have an excused absence the instructor will work with you on a take-home version of this assignment. Housing Survey analysis: 4-6 page paper Using the map provided on BlackBoard or through the finding aid here ( examine a block of housing surveys. Drawing from at least three surveys and the information on the website Mapping Inequality ( craft an essay that examines housing conditions on the block you are assigned and thinks critically about city plans for urban renewal. Your essay should also compare the HOLC area descriptions to the city surveys what types of logic do they employ? How do they describe value? This paper will be due at the end of Week 4. Biography paper: 4-6 page paper. For this paper you will choose a displaced business, family, property-owner, tenant, or other actor to follow through the historic archive. Using sources available at the Baltimore City Archives, Baltimore Sun, Afro-American, US census, online databases, and class texts, develop a short biography of displaced actor(s) or business. What can you say about the changes they might have experienced on their block in the years before demolition? How often did they move? What might their social world have looked like? The completed biography is due at the end of Week 8. Exhibit text: 1-2 pages contextualizing an image. Based on your previous two assignments, provide a description that explains the context of a photo from the archive that you would like to share. These will be added to an online exhibit about displaced Baltimore neighborhoods in collaboration with the Baltimore City Archives. This will be drafted several times, including through in-class activities. First draft is due in Week 9. The final draft will be due on our assigned exam day. Core Project: page paper. During the weeks allotted for this course we can only begin to develop the many important themes bound up in property rights, displacement, and gentrification. These issues could also be explored at various geographical scales and in different cities. You could continue developing your existing research on Baltimore or you may choose to work on another city in a comparative frame. This longer assignment provides an opportunity for you to develop your own intervention by exploring a historical problem related to the course material, but which we have not been able to fully develop through the syllabus readings. Your paper might locate a neighborhood case study that is not addressed in any of our readings, and develop a paper in light of material studied in the course. Alternatively, you might be interested in a category of analysis, such as gender or immigration status, which is underexplored in the course readings. Please also feel free to base your project around the recommended readings listed above, since we will not be able to cover all of this material as a class. You will need to submit a topic to be approved by the instructor by the end of Week 7. A full rough draft of
6 this assignment will be due by the end of Week 12. The final revised copy of this paper will be due at the end of reading period. Evaluation: Participation: 25% Housing Survey Analysis: 15% Biography Paper: 15% Exhibit Text: 20% Topic Proposal for Final Paper: 5% Core Project: 20%
