Mob, police, and working-class families allied against the Beats in the Village turf wars

Evidence

On another front, the latter were themselves pitted against the police and other municipal authorities (including the Mob) who had allied with the community’s indigenous, working-class, largely Italian families in opposition to the burgeoning Beat element (drawn to the South Village by relatively cheap rents and relaxed social mores). Paradoxically, the Beats were united with their hostile neighbors in disdain for the swarm of weekend tourists courted by the coffeehouse entrepreneurs. — J. Hoberman, Everything Is Now, 252

Categorization

• ADDENDUM: Supports ‘On Sacrifice’ indirectly not — rather speaks to the gentrification-origin thesis the reader is after, but no direct addendum article match. This is the turf-wars material the reader explicitly named as the best study of gentrification’s origin.
• XREF: Directly serves the reader’s stated goal: documents the coalition structure of pre-gentrification territorial conflict, the material precondition for later displacement.
