Fight Forward in Manhattan: Challenging Modern-Day Redlining

Moving Towards More Impactful Policies and Solutions to Fight Modern-Day Redlining

Decades of redlining have and continue to prevent people and communities of color from buying homes, investing in small businesses, and building wealth. What happens when policies designed to address injustices are not race-conscious, and not designed with equity from the start? This panel will explore what modern-day redlining is and how it is impacting our NYC communities. Hear examples, stories, research, and ideas from community groups and policy researchers on how people are countering modern-day redlining and what NYC could be doing to undo it.
