For so many decades, Hackney was the pinnacle of the dynamic multicultural spirit of modern Britain, demonstrated by the borough's vibrant and energetic streets and often controversial political, cultural and socio-economic character. But today, the Hackney that long-standing residents once treasured seems to be disappearing. The borough's diverse working-class communities - who survived the run-down council estates, the overwhelming deprivation and the postcode wars - are increasingly being pushed out by the middle classes who buy up their homes, rename their shops and reshape their neighbourhoods.How did Hackney go from being one of the poorest and most uninviting places in the country to being one of the most sought-after locations? In these pages, lifelong resident Richard Yeboah uncovers the borough's lively history, revealing the uncomfortable story of how gentrification has transformed Hackney, for better or for worse.Examining some of the most contested issues facing the borough today - including housing and regeneration, politics, class, race, education, youth violence, culture and gender identity - Yeboah amplifies the voices of Hackney's new, existing and former communities and explores the relationship between gentrification and feelings of belonging and loss.From Hackney, With Love is both a unique love letter to one of the most vibrant parts of London and a warning that its very existence is in jeopardy.
Richard Yeboah is a historian and writer from Hackney, London, who has researched and written extensively on history, economic development, public policy and social affairs since 2011, with a particular interest in regeneration and gentrification in east London. Yeboah has a wealth of experience working across central government, local government and the private sector, having done so over the past ten years. He has always had a passion for public services and supporting disadvantaged, working-class communities, driven by his upbringing and personal experiences in Hackney since the 1990s and a deep interest in history and political economy.
