We recommended reading The Color of Law by Richard Rothstein and have included some of our favorite quotes:


By creating racially restrictive covenants, the government effectively locked African Americans out of certain neighborhoods and limited their opportunities for upward mobility.
Housing segregation has deepened racial disparities in education, employment, and wealth accumulation.
Segregation has robbed generations of African Americans of the opportunities they deserve.
We cannot expect individuals to rise above systemic barriers; we must remove those barriers altogether.
