Abstract This article argues for a revised understanding of the role of migration and migrant heritages in the framing of regeneration and gentrification in London. It does so in relation to two themes of Ruth Glass's work: first, through her work on Caribbean migrants in 1950s London in Newcomers (1960), and second, through changing meanings of ‘gentrification’, the term she coined in London: Aspects of Change (1964); and in addition to work by Sheila Patterson, who also contributed to London: Aspects of Change. I discuss these themes through sharing a series of practice-based artistic research projects in Brixton, London, that took place between 2011 and 2016, with a focus on Brixton Market. The work considers how the heritage of migrant communities in the area has been co-opted by those promoting regeneration plans that seek to marketise this heritage as a consumable quality, while simultaneously pushing out those who have created this culture of place, and argues for an alternative redefining of re-generation. This article further reflects on positionality, asking whether shifts in the possibilities of research methods enable us to better consider the subjectivity and role of researcher and researched.
