East Austin residents fight to preserve a changing neighborhood
AUSTIN (KXAN) — Delores Duffie and Myrtle Holmes Wilson are among a dwindling group of native east Austinites who have held on to their homes and businesses amid a wave of sales and redevelopment across East 11th and East 12th Street.
From community members attempting to save a historic century-old building purchased by a developer to the story of a family holding on to their father's dream, the documentary 'What Remains' explores decades of gentrification and a community pushing to evolve while fighting to preserve what remains of a historically Black neighborhood.
Please join us on Sunday, Feb. 16, at 12:30 p.m. on KXAN to watch 'What Remains.'
