Federal housing officials spent years investigating cities for putting industrial plants and unwanted facilities in poor, nonwhite neighborhoods. Now, under Trump, the agency plans to drop the cases.
Thank you so much for this article. A quick drive through Cincinnati neighborhoods of Roselawn and West End could tell anyone the case has merit. Btw, tRump learned the ropes in real estate in Cincinnati from his dad where the tRump company was sued for discrimination against black people. They settled out of court. That case had merit, too, but the tRump family didn't have any dictators in it yet.
Shaking my head. I am the person that filed the paperwork on behalf of Dorthy Ross (Memphis, TN). While dismayed not shocked at all by President Trump's plans to drop 7 major housing discrimination cases. I hold Memphis Mayor's Paul Young accountable. Back in 2017 when Paul Young was the Community and Housing Director for the City of Memphis, I personally met with Young and requested for him to speak with then Major Jim Strickland to tell Strickland that what MLGW (Memphis Light Gas & Water) was doing was not in the best interest of residents and community. This man(to be respectful, not due) Now Mayor Young told me "I got a family to feed". Regardless to what Pres. Trump does, it do not stop local government from doing the right thing. What do a majority Black city light Memphis with several Black politicians in power (see Roland Martin Juneteenth speech) acting as crowds, and only in their own self-interest. Black voters give their vote to those harming the Black community the most. In closing, it did not take HUD 7 dams years to investigate this matter. Why did Biden order these case be investigate and close during his term? But the Democrat (Major Young) will be asking for your vote, when he has the authority to tell MLGW to stop and rebuild the Hollywood Community. There were several senior citizens (60s, 70s, 80s) homes were taken, not to mention generation homeownership. Disgusted!
