Federal Policies that Contributed to Segregation - And the Disparities between White and Black Wealth

Watch this eight and a half minute video,  Segregation Myth: Richard Rothstein Debunks An American Lie

 

The part about Black wealth today being 10% of white wealth, as a direct result of this federal housing subsidy helping white families where it held back Black families, was really eye-opening for me.

Important to know, and to think about.

The light in me recognizes and acknowledges the light in you,
