(Un)Fair Housing Podcast CLS

We'll be taking a quick break this week so be sure join to us next week as we dive back into (Un)Fair Housing. 

This week we are continuing our discussion on building suburbia following the civil war.  We will focus on redlining, a lending practice that helped shape segregation in housing. 

In this week's episode we dive into the history of public housing and its role in creating and reinforcing housing segregation. 

In this week's episode we take a look at how suburban towns were built and the tools used to exclude many groups from this American Dream. 

On this episode we will be joined by expert Sonia Hirt, Dean and Hughes Professor in Landscape Architecture and Planning at the University of Georgia College of Environment and Design to discuss how zoning has developed in the US as a tool to separate communities of color. 

Join us as we lay the foundation for our (Un)Fair Housing podcast discussion and revisit this episode throughout your listening journey to get more information on how housing segregation developed throughout our nation's history.
