redlining

You can draw a straight line from segregated communities and redlining to Medicaid policy, which says we’re going to pay less for the same service.

Big telecom companies stand to benefit the most from these provisions, even though a mandate to prevent practices known as “digital redlining” could prove costly by ensuring service providers don’t discriminate in where they expand networks.

These are the same communities that used redlining to shut out families of color decades ago.

Potential admins now undergo additional training on redlining — or excluding people from certain neighborhoods — and diversity.

In a neighborhood which has been subjected to redlining and racism, disregard by political leaders, and decades of neglect and disinvestment of capital, community revitalization is as complex a problem as you’ll ever find.

In short, redlining forced blacks into particular areas and then starved those areas of affordable capital.
