Segregation in Federally Subsidized Low-Income Housing in the United States
by Modibo Coulibaly, Rodney D. Green, David M. James. 158 pgs.

Book

Read Synopsis [+]

Hide Synopsis [-]

Earlier studies of subsidized housing assume that segregation is a manifestation of white prejudice, and that the Fair Housing Act of 1968 would significantly remedy inequalities in housing and, in the process, narrow the socioeconomic gap between racial groups. This book argues, on the contrary, that segregation by race and income has been an integral part of federal housing policy from its inception and that white prejudice merely obscures the federal government's role in maintaining segregation.
