Guaranteeing mortgages with racist criteria
mardi 20 juillet 2021 à 02:00In the New Deal, the US government started guaranteeing home mortgages, using explicitly racist criteria. This policy continued into the 1960s. The segregation of suburbs thus established persists to this day.
In cases where the government discriminated against people based on race, it owes reparations to the victims of that discrimination, and their descendants. That includes those who were discriminated against by aid programs like these.
