Despite anti-Black housing discrimination, Black neighborhoods flourished.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From the 1950s to the 1970s, however, the Fillmore underwent drastic changes driven by the federally-funded redevelopment of areas that were deemed “blighted” by the city’s leaders.

Many homes were bulldozed while many others were relocated. Many Black-owned businesses were forced to shut down. According to Rachel Brahinsky, a politics and urban studies professor at USF, an estimated 10,000 to 13,000 Fillmore residents were incrementally displaced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There isn’t a sort of instant disappearance,” Brahinsky said. “Culture is very resilient.

Many homes were bulldozed while many others were relocated. Many Black-owned businesses were forced to shut down.
