In this special podcast, A Radio Geekly expounds on the idea of gentrification as applied to geek culture. In this special hour-long piece, we take a look at code switching between gentrification and consumerism. How does the term gentrification actually apply? What is gentrification? What do you spaces like geek cons, nerdcore, and Porgs have to do with forcing out historically marginalized communities? What can you do, as a geek, to fight gentrification as it expanded beyond the concept of housing and neighborhoods? How do we address the systemic roots of oppression in geekdom? Who is missing from the conversation?
