On Jan. 26, 2021, President Joe Biden signed four executive orders designed to address racial equity in the United States. With one particular action Biden hopes to right the historical wrongs Black folks have faced when it comes to housing and homeownership in this country.
Per a White House statement, “He will direct the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to take steps necessary to redress racially discriminatory federal housing policies that have contributed to wealth inequality for generations.”
And that’s why the story of what housing and other living conditions look like for many Black Americans is pretty bleak. It’s by design.

In the 70's... we had a clinic, recreation center, ymca, salvation army, grocery store, & a small library; right in the community 😊those were good times, even though we were poor... by the mid 80's all those facilities were gone & replaced with a police station & crack 🥺

Or maybe it's just up to you to make something of yourself no matter the situation you were born in. The government may have played roles in creating these types of conditions in those neighborhoods, but they certainly don't make you make bad and irresponsible choices. If you clean up your room, you clean up your life. Help clean up your neighborhood and bring awareness to the fact that our black children suffer the most out of any other race from the lack of a 2-parent household (mostly the father is absent). Without the love and discipline from two parents, you're more likely to get in trouble down the road and associate with the wrong crowd, and the unfortunate statistic of being responsible for 50% of the homicides every year stems from that.

Not true, that's not the reason. The reason is they want to make rasism stronger, so we hate each other. We can not allow it. most people alive today had no part in the segregation or slavery. I'm 58 my parents taught me we all bleed the same and how awful people of color were treated. We must not let people forget how wrong it was. We need to move away from, The past, hate is taught . I have experienced rasism from a black person, so it does go both ways. I lived in a neighborhood as a kid that the Kkk used to be in a parade down main st. During other holiday parades. My parents were so against it and surely told them to their faces when they asked why we did go to their parades. All were Democrats. My grandmother used to say, those rasist Democrats should be hung! We need to stand together, divided we fall. The Government is no ones friend. We need to teach , All lives matter!

I’m white, conservative leaning with notes of left, and am constantly BLOWN AWAY by people who don’t know this history. I was born in the 60’s and knew people who lived in the projects, visited friends in the projects, and always wondered why is was full of Black Americans. Now I get it: American made slavery illegal, but then turned around and made it illegal to be black. When others say “Look at the immigrants who come here with nothing and do so well…” I have to point out that there was an expectation that we’d take care of our own first. Sure some people make it out of poverty, but only Black Americans were “legally” deprived of prosperity by their own government. No, it’s not rounding up and entire race and exterminating them, but it’s still unconscionable. Even our precious suburbs are racists, but most Americans don’t see that. Biden is doing what he can to start change, but the truth is that RU-vid which giving Americans the platform they need to bring these injustices to light. If you think about, outside of the pilgrims, and a few others, most Americans have a history, which is much shorter in this country than that of African-Americans. Definitely something to think about.

American laws even forbid interracial marriages, blacks weren’t allowed to own/buy their own homes and businesses, and had to take literacy and pay poll taxes just to vote. Even though slavery was illegal the Jim Crow era was a horrible time to be black. Keep in mind segregation was horrible, redlining against blacks existed in every form of institutionalization such as housing, banks, jobs, etc..most fell back into debt with sharecropping

The highway will not create a ghetto. A people so shallow to believe imminent domain laws only impact black neighborhoods? Ghettos are created by CULTURE! Not highways. Not Trump and Republicans but culture. To create a ghetto all you have to do is put lower income blacks and those on public assistance together. No matter where you move this demographic of people ghettos emerge. Tell the truth. You have witnessed it. We hate for white folks to talk about it but not even middle class blacks want to live in black low income communities where single motherhood is the norm. Why black people on here acting sensitive about stuff we is true is beyond me.

To make a difference, blacks should ban hip hop, make kids pull their pants up, stop tolerating disrespect from kids at home, school, or anywhere they go. Stop watching Mad TV, Wives of LA, South Park, Empire, and gansta rap videos. Next, stop giving kids with D's and F's cell phones. Limit time spent on social media. Never kids friends in your house with the parents permission. Stopping buy them stuff we cannot afford but give chores to earn money.

My buddy would tell me a racist joke about white folk and I would tell him a black joke and we would laugh like we were busting a gut. The others didn't know what to think they would walk away. He had my back and I had his. We were brothers and we trusted each other. Neither one of us believed in the racial crap. It's a matter of the heart. Most folks could care less what color anyone is. We all , red, yellow, black and white, know better. Any time we hear a political person talk about color we need to give back to them and trust each other. That's how we did it and it brought change in our school not all but people's heart changed. Stand on what's written in Webster's dictionary. Avoid people who promote racism.

West coconut grove was all black until about 5 years ago… it’s being gentrified as We post… I went there yesterday and they put up a visitor center that says absolutely nothing about Coconut Grove which is the oldest settled part of Miami and was settled by Black people. There were no black faces, though they claim to explain the history verbally they have pamphlets about everywhere else except Miami or Coconut Grove which is actually where the City Hall sits ,it’s strange. I grew up there and I raised my children there I no longer live there. It looks very European, there is almost nothing left of the culture that started the place that everyone claim to love so much. When I asked questions I was immediately assumed to live in the West Grove because of my passion for the information that they did not have and were not sharing( it looks like someone stole it and is being an imposter). Originally, Coconut Grove was started by Haitians, then black Bahamians settled and cleared it and then the white Bahamians came over and moved in… They allow most historical buildings to implode on themselves, rather than to deem them historical landmarks and discuss the history.

"Ghetto" has an earlier history in Europe where Jews were forced to live. "Ghet" is Yiddish for "separation." Ghetto is where Italians forced Jews to live, called shtetl in German and Eastern Europe areas. The name was transferred to Black neighborhoods after it was picked up from Jews and Italians in New York, where they were also segregated in places like the Bowery, in Manhattan. Robert Moses designed the highways that destroyed the Bronx, which was Italian and Jewish before it was Black and Dominican. The Bronx was thriving before the highways cut up neighborhoods and by-passed them with no exits.

Solidarity is the difference between a racial/cultural group that flourishes and one that flounders. Psychological tactics that have been used against black people have been largely successful. If there are "crabs in a barrell" somebody put them there. Instead of pulling each other back down, we must elevate ourselves and each other to emerge from the psychological and actual warfare tactics. We need psychological reprogramming and tactical training.

Wow, this is exactly what happened where I’m from in syracuse, ny. In the 60’s there was a predominantly black community in what was known as the 15th ward that was completely bulldozed to build a highway, a jail, a hospital directly behind one that already existed, and right next to those highways are public housing communities built right after the bulldoxzing of the 15th ward in the 1970’s. Practically all of African American history from the first of our people who came here escaping the south was erased. We came here with nothing and built our own schools, doctors, barbershops, grocery stores, churches, and it was all wiped out for “urban renewal”. Ironically 50 years later we are facing the same problem. They are now talking about wiping out those same public housing communities as part of gentrification, turns out that highway that wiped out hundreds of years of African American history only lasts 50 years. Now hundreds of people are once again at risk of homelessness and having to relocate, if they’re lucky since they’ve slowly been raising rent prices in our neighborhoods, and paler richer faces have slowly been popping up as we get kicked out. History doesn’t change, it only repeats itself.

Absolutely correct. At some point black people need to stop playing victim. It’s free to sweep in front of your door. If everyone would just pick up a broom and sweep our neighborhoods would look so much better. It’s free to not hang on corners or loiter in front of stores. I just don’t understand why in 2023 black people are still victimizing themselves and I’m a black woman and I’m tired of the victim mentality.

Instead of always running to white neighborhoods maybe black people as a collective need to make their own neighborhoods better, and their own schools better. The vast majority of our middle class and upper middle class live in White neighborhoods. Imagine if black neighborhoods had more black doctors, lawyers, and business owners. It would change the entire complexion of the neighborhood. It balls down to the decades old question. Are our neighborhoods shitty because we keep leaving, or do we keep leaving because our neighborhoods are shitty. So the problem is to fold. A lot of us like anyone else want our children to be safe, and want our children to go to schools where they can get a decent education, but a lot of us if we are honest value proximity to whiteness. I have heard black people brag about them being the only black family on their block, or their children being the only black kids at their school. We see access to white people as part of our success even if we do so implicitly. It wasn’t just money that made the Jeffersons successful, or the Cosby’s, or the Johnson’s from Blackish. It was their access to white people at home, at work, and at school. Even the leaders of Black Lives Matter Purchased homes in White neighborhoods. Even our montra, making it out of the hood, means making it out of a black neighborhood and into a white one.

@@thicpancakes4673 critical race theory is racist so no I would never advocate for it but I think something should be done about the way our government likes to keep our black communities down by keeping them dependent on the government by giving them just enough to get by. Black kids in these communities are not graduating highschool due to terrible educational opportunities in these areas, as well as getting into crime. The culture also glamorizes selling drugs and killing so that definitely is a part of the problem as well. If you really want to go there we can go there. The parties never switched if you do your research and look at the officials of that time they never switched. The “dirty democrats” are literally the ones who introduced crack, planned parenthood, government housing (projects) ect. I will continue to believe democrats are the racist ones by keeping poor black people dependent on them and barely giving them enough to get by and making them feel like victims just so they get their votes. If it were up to me I’d want to tear down government housing, stop giving so much government subsidies to these communities, take our education in inner cities a lot more seriously, and up lift poor black communities by educating them on becoming successful through hard work and even building their own businesses, and creating their own black owned communities once again which is what was happening before the democrats couldn’t stand it and turned it all to government housing and got everybody hooked on crack and spread aids. At one point in time black communities were thriving and expanding and we’re safe but that all changed once the crack and aids were introduced now democrats use a “victimization mentality” to get votes from poor black people when THEY WERE THE ONES THAT DID IT TO THEM. Master manipulators. And if you’ve made it this far I don’t like republicans either, I just agree with conservative policies regarding economics and social issues. The political parties are a shitfest and taking sides to argue all day about is silly. But I do know that democrats hate black people and it’s going to be hard to change my mind.

When communities learn and grow independently and no longer need government help, politicians become useless and loses the control to say vote for me so they can help you.

I was a land surveyor there for a little while. The company I was working for at the time worked with the Tampa housing authority project. We were locating property corners and replacing a lot of the property corners because they had rusted away over 100 years old. I read the legal description to all these places. It was definitely designed to segregate. It was written in plain English right in the legal description. Democratic racial influence in the development of communities was clearly seen. It was spelled out in the legal description to each piece of property in the whole town. My Great Grandfather was democrat and, shamefully, KKK. They record their sick perverse crimes on film. Gladly I do not bare his name for my Dad was adopted. That party needs to be abolished.

No one argues Greek people shouldn't live in Greek communities or Italians in Italian neighborhoods. Rather these ethnic communities are lauded. Somehow though it's bad for black people wanting to live in black neighborhoods! For over 15 years the US government has been tearing down black projects & destroying black communities; forcing black people into white suburbs. Today the typical black family no longer lives in a black neighborhood. Why is this bad? Think about it! It prevents black people from organizing, protesting, & being part of a larger community.

Tearing down projects is not forcing Blacks to live in white suburbs. It's forcing Blacks to live in the streets! The projects were nothing but concentration camps built to control Blacks who were displaced by massive white race riots in the south during reconstruction. BBB is only mass gentrification to displace Blacks once again and Manchin knows it. It's the same thing they did to the Indians on their "trail of tears" only lasting much longer! Your revisionist history is sick!

My people I hope this comment reaches someone and touches their soul. We are powerful, extremely powerful creatures. We were once kings and queens , and this is a known fact. We will never see change unless we start within ourselves and in our communities. I noticed in our community we tend to blame police and our government. While they do play a big role , it is our responsibility as a community to come together, uplift each other, and most importantly accept and hold each other accountable. Every other community does this except ours. If we want change we have to start directly with our youth. The government will never been in our favor , even behind all of these laws their passing something bigger is going on that’ll ultimately end up hurting us more than it helped. Please let’s wake up, let’s take accountability and rise together we got this.

The more money the government spend, the more the prices are increased while lowering the quality. Take a look at the prices of housing in places like NYC. Housing and rent are extremely expensive, yet many are even infested with roaches. Conclusion: money isn't the biggest problem wether it is education, training or housing programs. The problem is the attitude, knowledge and commitment of those in charge of making these programs work.

People in the inter cities are trapped in poverty and never venture out of the city . Housing is high starts at $,1,200 a month plus and on a fixed income even the elderly are screwed. You have to work two jobs nowadays to afford a decent place . Example , I lived in downtown Baltimore in the 70s and rent was $150 a month now the same building wants $2 -3 grand a month though its fixed up now

Continually having children that we can't take care of. Kill one another. Most of all. Turning our back on God. No morals, no values. Just live any way. No respect for each other. All of these things that the government did. If we would have kept respect and responsibility for each other. Kept our faith and trust in God. You can argue all you want.

Community building has always interested me because I know its a way to support local small business, job creation, quality of life and economic growth. I'm curious how the government can incentivize that and have affordable housing. I think ethnic enclaves will always be a thing but the racist policies of the past, have severely crippled/set back our ability of economic growth inside our communities. Right now i think the future lies in studying how immigrate enclaves like China town/Little Italy/Etc. formed and developed.

@@boostjunkie2320 Ooook! Finally have time to address your comment. You're ONE of the least people to be giving ADVICE to anyBODY. America HISTORY plays a BIG role in this generational wealth gap. True story: My co-worker father owned over 700 acres of land. He borrowed a 130 from this white farmer (this was in the 60's) to feed his family. He found difficulty paying this man back, so this white farmer took his land from him. We live in a small, and this truly hurts my co-worker because she know the people who has possession of the land that should be hers and her siblings. These people has generated millions of dollars off of this one man property that his children should've generated. You see stuff like this was permitted to happen to my people. You see, your people has a HISTORY of stealing from other people and taking their stuff. Redlining, Black Wall Street and millions more of incidents like this. So before you gap that mouth to talk about my people. Talk about how your people took, stole and colonized everything in site. If your conversation don't start off like that.

GOvernment created Many ghettos. Height of immigration 19th early 20th century ethnic groups divided in to housing. Little Italy China town They're tourist attractions..... Black neighborhoods? Not so much... Inner city schools and teachers get a bad rap. The black underclass does not suffer from bad schools. They create bad schools, in large part because so many of the children are largely ineducable. As to the effects of welfare on black families, it should be noted that the single mother syndrome is ubiquitous in Africa and the Caribbean and Brazil, none of which have the American welfare state.
