DescriptionThe second half of a series on the 4th Ward. The film follows efforts of the residents of Allan Parkway Village to keep the Housing Authority of Houston from tearing down and redeveloping a housing project at the edge of the 4th ward. The film shows the difficulty in mounting an opposition to the Housing Authority in the housing project, now that the area has a large Vietnamese population. Language barriers between the African-American community and the Vietnamese community complicate matters in mounting a unified resistance. This segment of the film includes interviews with Mayor Kathy Whitmire and her thoughts on the Allan Parkway Village redevelopment plans. This film runs best using Apple's QuickTime video software.
