Buddy Gray
Stanley "buddy" Gray (1950 – 15 November 1996) was a controversial political activist and social worker who lived in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio. Gray used 1960s-style confrontation and intimidation to persuade Cincinnati officials to pour money into his low-income housing projects.〔〔 He was known for an "in-your-face, shout-them-down style of confrontation," and described himself as "a hard-nosed radical, a street fighter for street people."〔Miller and Tucker (1999), pg. 112.〕 His allies saw him as a "charitable humanitarian friend of the homeless,"〔Miller and Tucker (1999), pg. 139.〕 but his enemies saw "a poverty pimp" who wanted to turn Over-the-Rhine into a "super ghetto."〔 Gray's legacy continues through the Drop Inn Center homeless shelter and ReSTOC, a low-income housing organization that later merged with another non-profit to form Over-the-Rhine Community Housing.〔Over-the-Rhine Community Housing, (OTRCH: Who We Are ). Accessed on 2010-07-29.〕
==Activism==
Gray operated the Drop Inn Center in Over-the-Rhine, which provided food, clothing, and shelter but not conventional treatment for homeless alcoholics.〔Miller and Tucker (1999), pg. 105.〕 Around the late 1970s he emerged as the leader for the rights of the poor in Over-the-Rhine, spending much of his life fighting historic preservationists who wanted to save Over-the-Rhine's deteriorating nineteenth century architecture. Gray believed preserving the buildings would lead to gentrification, which would involuntarily uproot the poor and push them out of their homes and neighborhood.〔Miller and Tucker (1999), pg. 84.〕 Gray believed that regardless of what the city government and preservationists said they ultimately wanted to run his homeless shelter out of Over-the-Rhine and turn it into an "artsy-craftsy" neighborhood.〔 He was not against preservation when it benefited the poor, as he was known to protest demolitions, some with acts of civil disobedience.
