That World Is Gone: Race and Displacement in a Southern Town

That World Is Gone: Race and Displacement in a Southern Town (2010) is a history, documentary film directed by Hannah Brown Ayers, Lance Warren.

Kathy's family left on a Saturday morning in 1965. The rumble of bulldozers echoed through the neighborhood, and her block was empty. Federally-funded urban renewal had arrived in Charlottesville, scattering dozens of families like Kathy's. The once-vibrant African American community, built by formerly enslaved men and women who had secured a long-denied piece of the American dream, disappeared.
