Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor examines the shift from redlining to predatory inclusion within the American housing market during the 1970s. By analyzing federal policy reforms and the subsequent exploitation of Black urban communities by the real estate and banking industries, the text reveals how systemic barriers evolved rather than disappeared. This study provides a rigorous historical account of how the pursuit of homeownership was weaponized against African American families.
