You just make payments to a different landlord.
America built a house on a broken foundation. When folks noticed the cracks, leaders painted the walls instead of fixing the concrete.
First, laws allowed white men to own Black humans.
When that stopped, the state wrote the Black Codes. Mississippi made it a crime for a Black man to lack a job, forcing men into unpaid convict labor.
When those rules failed, the state wrote quiet rules. In 1933, the Home Owners Loan
Corporation drew red lines across federal maps. Banks labeled Black neighborhoods hazardous, ensuring lenders would not approve home loans for Black residents.
Next, towns used local real estate taxes to fund public schools. Rich white suburbs kept cash inside their own borders, while redlined Black neighborhoods had zero wealth to tax.
The hate never left. It just learned to hide in plain sight.
