(NECN) – Dozens of people rallied in Dorchester, Massachusetts Saturday afternoon to take back the block.

The Boston neighborhood is struggling with record levels of unemployment and housing foreclosures.

Members of the community came together demanding change.

Organizers of the event are asking banks, like Bank of America, to refinance housing loans so families are not thrown out on the street,

This is just the latest in a string of protests and complaints against Bank of America.
