Discrimination by design: How realtors created the model that made housing discrimination a nationwide phenomenon and how a new emerging justaccounting.org coalition is repairing the damage, while creating more walkable streets in liveable neighborhoods. Instructor Rob Thomas, Racial Justice Coalition of Asheville, Chuck Mahron, Strong Towns, Gilbert Gonzales, San Antonio board of realtors Sabor.com

Books and articles to read:

Freedom to Discriminate [1] the amazing story of how the nation’s realtors, reacting to Martin Luther King’s speech at the March on Washington, redefined freedom as freedom for the individual, where your freedom limits mine, instead of freedom of access for all. Their method was adopted by Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon

A story in the Atlantic by the author of Freedom to Discriminate that tells the book’s story well. [2]

Sum of Us, by Heather McGhee A history of the limitation of freedoms, and a path to a shared prosperity. A brilliant book; she also has great podcasts and talks online. [3]
