In 1959 the City of New York tried to use urban renewal to displace residents in Cooper Square. The City had no idea who they were messing with. A motley crew of radical working-class folks showed up to protect their community from being displaced in favor of wealthier residents.Frances Goldin, the last surviving organizer of the original Cooper Square Committee, retells how they BEAT City Hall and big real estate developers to save their community. SOUND FAMILIAR Jersey City?
