===== Definition ===== Racialized poverty segregation refers to the phenomenon in which individuals or communities of a certain racial or ethnic group are more likely to experience poverty and are concentrated in specific geographic areas due to systemic discrimination and historical inequalities. This can result in further marginalization and limited access to resources and opportunities for those affected. Historical factors such as housing discrimination, segregation policies, and economic disparities have contributed to the perpetuation of racialized poverty segregation. This leads to the creation of neighborhoods and communities where individuals of a certain race or ethnicity are disproportionately affected by poverty, limited access to quality education, healthcare, and job opportunities. Addressing racialized poverty segregation requires a comprehensive approach that addresses underlying systemic issues, promotes economic and social equality, and provides resources and support to marginalized communities. This can include policies and initiatives aimed at increasing affordable housing options, improving access to education and healthcare, promoting economic development in disadvantaged areas, and addressing institutional racism and discrimination. By addressing these root causes, society can work towards creating more equitable and inclusive communities for all individuals, regardless of their race or ethnicity.
