Answer:

In Shadowshaper, gentrification is a main theme. Gentrification refers to renovating a neighborhood to bring it up to certain standards. The author uses the reaction of the local residents to new buildings and establishments in Brooklyn to illustrate that gentrification creates negative feelings among the local residents.

Manny and his friends in the Junklot represent the old Brooklyn. Manny represents a tie to an even older Brooklyn and its heritage by representing a tie to Brooklyn’s spiritual past.

I want description about my home town iraq,baghdad ....
kramer

Answer:

Explanation:

My hometown is Baghdad, Iraq. Baghdad was the largest city in the world for much of the Abbasid era during the Islamic Golden Age, peaking at a population of more than a million. It is located along the Tigris, near the ruins of the Akkadian city of Babylon and the ancient Iranian capital of Ctesiphon.  Iraq has launched a project to build an industrial and economic city in the capital Baghdad at a cost of around $29 million, the official Alsabah daily said on Tuesday. The city south of Baghdad comprises industrial and business facilities, a free zone, banks, fuel stations and other facilities, it said. In my opinion, Baghdad is a place with beautiful scenery and amazing Mosques but other areas are more broken down and not well built or secured which is why some areas would not be safe for tourists and such. Except for that Baghdad is a great place for Muslims as a great portion of their population is Islam.
