Including the History of Redlining in Extension to Contextualize Local Housing Policy Decisions

The MSU Extension Housing Policy Team developed a suite of award-winning housing programs to help with housing affordability and attainability in Michigan. Among other causes of housing inequality, those programs include the history of redline mapping, in which the U.S. federal government institutionalized discriminatory practices that created wealth in housing for some and not others, and which still drives inequality in housing today. MSU Extension developed a website on the history of redline mapping in Michigan, which has been cited by the Michigan State Housing Development Authority and is used in Extension programs. This webinar will review this history, these Extension programs, and how you can develop a similar resource of this history for your own state.

Presenter:
Craig Carpenter, Assistant Professor, Department of Agricultural, Food, and Resource Economics, Michigan State University
