Housing Act of 1949 - Wikipedia

Legacy[edit]
The Act was of great importance in that it governed the way the immense financial resources of the federal government would shape the growth of American cities in the post-war era. For instance, in one survey of the top "influences on the postwar American metropolis," the FHA's mortgage financing program ranks second and urban renewal programs rank fourth.[5] The law facilitated a rise in homeownership and the building of huge public housing projects that would become fixtures in many American cities.

The legislation's legacy is mixed, particularly with regard to the success of the urban renewal and public housing elements. The government fell far short of its goal to build 810,000 units of new public housing by 1955, providing little aid to cities suffering from housing shortages. In fact, because of projects like Lincoln Center, a New York City cultural development including 4400 apartments for which 7000 apartments were torn down, the Act's urban redevelopment programs actually destroyed more housing units than they built.[6]

Meanwhile, the massive urban redevelopment efforts prompted by the Act came under fire for poor planning, failings with regard to social equity and fairness, and sometimes corruption (see, e.g., Manhattantown). Urban renewal also came under fire for discriminating against minorities, in that it often resulted in minority-heavy slums being destroyed and replaced with more expensive housing or non-residential public works that were not accommodating to the original inhabitants. The slogan adopted by critics equated "urban renewal" with "Negro removal."[7]

The federal government spent $13.5 billion on urban redevelopment and slum clearance projects between 1953 and 1986.[8]

Jason Black sounding a BIT like Yvette right now.
He been sounding like her a lot lately.

Yvette said something sideways about Dr. Welsing after her death. While she apologized, they can’t seem to ever move past it.
I don't even think it was sideways. Iirc, listeners had been asking her to address Dr Welsing's ideas but she never got around to it. When she finally passed, ppl started pressing Yvette even more. As a woman of ideas and debate, I don't even think Dr Welsing would have been offended. The most sublime possibility for a scholar is that people continue to debate and engage their thoughts after they gone off this planet. That's true immortality.

But I can definitely see why Tariq and them might feel some kinda way. But that's them. I can't say Dr Welsing would agree, both with their initial reaction to Yvette, and to their continued anger at Yvette.

But I don't know shyt and these are just my thoughts. :hubie:

JB predicting that 12 bout to start fukking with them :lupe:
That's inevitable. Once the awakening of black America from the stupor of post-racial thinking reaches a critical mass, its emergence from the mental chains of liberalism - which has been employed as a trojan horse of control over pro-black empowerment - will be treated as a national security issue. Millions of black men and women rejecting the lie of intersectionality and post-racialism means the myth of two parties that aren't united in the preservation of white supremacy will be put to rest. This is just the beginning, the fire merely being lit by the likes of Tariq and company. It's when those flames begin to grow, causing damage to institutions that've been successfully masked as friends of black people since the Civil Rights Act, that shyt will get real.
