White housing segregation refers to the practice of separation and exclusion of people based on their race, often resulting in neighborhoods and communities that are predominantly white. This type of segregation has been historically pervasive in the United States, with the implementation of practices such as redlining, restrictive covenants, and discriminatory lending practices that enforced racial segregation in housing.
Even though legal segregation has been outlawed, the legacy of white housing segregation persists in many communities through the continued socioeconomic disparities between predominantly white neighborhoods and neighborhoods of color. This perpetuates unequal access to resources, opportunities, and quality of life for marginalized communities.
Efforts to address white housing segregation have included fair housing laws, affordable housing initiatives, and community development programs aimed at promoting more inclusive and equitable housing practices. However, systemic barriers and ingrained biases continue to present challenges in achieving true housing integration and equality.
