Note on The Color of Law via Richard Rothstein
Forty-eight percent of African American families, at all income levels, have lived in poor neighborhoods over at least two generations, compared to 7 percent of white families. If a child grows up in a poor neighborhood, moving up and out to a middle-class area is typical for whites but an aberration for African Americans.
This is a staggering indication of racist housing policies in America.
