Abstract
Description
In this interview, past Cleaborn Homes resident Marva Jones talks about changes she saw in the neighborhood. She says the buildings were sound, but there was a problem with trash outside. The major change she notes is the influx of violence. She doesn't feel like Cleaborn Homes was a community and talks about discrimination she faced being a resident of public housing.
