Part 1: What is Redlining?

This video series starts out by discussing how and why the system of redlining was created as well as addressing how, on a national scale, we can see its legacy play out today in things such as the racial wealth gap, disparities in neighborhood contention and property values, the homeownership gap and more.

Kendyl and Lauren great job! I enjoyed the presentation. I will be viewing the other five parts. Thank you!

Thank you for bringing this to light. Seeing how these policies influence our lives today is so important. Especially how little has been done to correct racist policies. Of course your work here is important and if it doesn't spark acknowledgement from the community and especially legislators, Des Moines doesn't have the right to claim progressivism in the way that many think it does. Of course, I'll be happy to hear if this sentiment is misguided. But Des Moines needs to walk the progressive walk.
