Gentrification in San Francisco

  Precious Uloaku Amaechi Ms.Smith African American Consciousness Nov 16th, 2025           Final Draft 11/29 “Daddy, where did all the customers go?” I asked my father as he drove us home. We were both exhausted from working a 14-hour shift at a store named G & R Market. It resides in the Filmore District.

I listen to " Key...
