How to navigate gentrification conversations when you are the issue

My neighborhood group wants to address gentrification but half of us are longtime residents worried about displacement and half of us are newer residents who moved here because it was affordable. Every conversation gets tense because we're talking about each other even when we're trying not to.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Some collective problems cannot be solved without acknowledging that group members occupy different positions within the problem itself.
