Residential segregation was practiced by federal, state, and local governments as an instrument of racial domination in the United States throughout much of the 20th century. Systematic racial discrimination in housing was unconstitutionally developed and implemented by state and federal agencies. Laws, regulations, and private practices in the real estate industry were used to promote legally enforced residential segregation in the United States. Zoning, redlining, and blockbusting created the division of our urban landscape along the color line: black and white. Residential segregation has had debilitating impacts on African Americans in cities in terms of lost opportunities for economic prosperity and the denial of homeownership and the wealth‐building potential that comes from it. Oakland, California is at the center of this research, where urban renewal and an interstate highway destroyed whole neighborhoods in West Oakland. The Acorn Housing Project was built in the aftermath of the urban renewal program. Title VIII of the Fair Housing Act remains the most promising basis for developing strategies for African Americans to fully engage in American’s legacy of wealth building through homeownership—the American Dream. Historically, that dream was designed only for white America. The task now is to realize it for everyone.

美国住宅隔离的历史,第八章和房屋所有权补救措施

在整个20世纪的大部分时间里,联邦,州和地方政府都实行居民隔离,以此作为种族统治的手段。住房系统的种族歧视是由州和联邦机构违宪制定和实施的。房地产行业的法律,法规和私人惯例被用来促进美国法律强制执行的住宅隔离。分区,重新着色和重磅炸弹沿着黑色和白色沿颜色线划分了我们的城市景观。就失去经济繁荣的机会,剥夺住房所有权和由此产生的财富积累潜力而言,住宅隔离对城市中的非洲裔美国人造成了令人衰弱的影响。加利福尼亚奥克兰是这项研究的中心,城市更新和州际公路在这里摧毁了西奥克兰的整个社区。橡子住房项目是在城市更新计划之后建造的。《公平住房法》第八章仍然是制定非裔美国人战略的最有前途的基础,这些战略旨在使非裔美国人通过房屋所有权充分参与美国人的财富积累遗产-《美国梦》。从历史上看,这个梦想只为美国白人设计。现在的任务是为每个人实现它。《公平住房法》第八章仍然是制定非裔美国人战略的最有前途的基础,这些战略旨在使非裔美国人通过房屋所有权充分参与美国人的财富积累遗产-《美国梦》。从历史上看,这个梦想只为美国白人设计。现在的任务是为每个人实现它。《公平住房法》第八章仍然是制定非裔美国人战略的最有前途的基础,这些战略旨在使非裔美国人通过房屋所有权充分参与美国人的财富积累遗产-《美国梦》。从历史上看,这个梦想只为美国白人设计。现在的任务是为每个人实现它。
