Gentrification is a word heard a lot in American cities, but many still have only a loose grasp on the concept. Last Days of Chinatown focuses its lens on one historic neighborhood in Detroit which serves as a microcosm for the phenomenon sweeping urban areas all over the country. By talking to the residents most impacted by this trend, as well as examining the causes and instigators of gentrification, from real estate to corporate welfare, Last Days of Chinatown is a unique meditation on one of the major socioeconomic drivers of the century.
