Pilsen coffee house in Chicago often under attack by Mexican immigrants who feel like they are living in a foreign country

  Pilsen is a community that unlike the suburbs it is losing Hispanic resident and this has some Mexican jingoists upset.  A high end coffee house named brow truss was constantly vandalized and seen as a sign of gentrification and displacement. I wonder how these people who put up these signs against owner Will Anderson would feel like if people in the suburbs had welcomed the new taqueria in the village with the same welcoming and warmth. Pilsen was a segregated immigrant community and the white American population has boomed in recent years as the Latino population moved out into the suburbs or Milwaukee. many of these Whites in Pilsen are returning to the are of their grandparents and returning to the city of Chicago.  Along with this growth choice for coffee consumption follows and this has advocates of bad brands and cheap prices in a vituperative rant against high end coffee houses that charge more for the bland crap these bums are use to in one of the three hundred Dunkin Donuts that unfortunately dot the area.long time residents are not comfortable seeing this cultural change in a neighborhood they feel is theirs and when they see Caucasian women with yoga mats and people flocking to the expensive coffee house to hang around such as BowTruss it is foreign to them. for the residents of Pilsen it is like living in a foreign country and doesn't resemble their native Mexico. The Chicanos of Chicago have tried hard to replicate Mexico and gentrification and other White people from the suburb ad outside moving into Pilsen and raising what was once nickel and dime rents they enjoyed is coming to an end and this process will be repeated in Little Village. Mexican-Americans are going to have to learn to assimilate and the days of cheap rent and the savings then  squandered on bad Mexican cheap restaurants is n o longer possible. When these vandalism signs started appearing I went over to this coffee house and started having spending my money here as a sign of unity with the staff and owner of the place and his right to set up shop. I often theorized that the Indian Dukin Donuts store down a few stores didn't want the competition and they were who were personally responsible for this attack on brow truss coffee which has several locations in Chicago and plans to expand further. The cardboard signs left at browtruss bemoaning the  role these coffee houses play in gentrification may not even be done by Latino Pilsen residents but a course of action by Dunkin Donuys. Who knows. Bowtruss coffee is a hip place and nothing like the geriatric slobbish place a Dukin Donuts and corporate coffee giant boring sameness it has to offer a neighborhood. big corporate giants don't like sudden competition and clearly the monopoly the Dunkin Donuts brand has been handed is under attack and people need to support more cool coffee establishments that offer a superior choice and product and help support the farmer in their-world countries in their hard labor.
