I also thought it was interesting to see all of the policies that have created this gap, a lot of which I had not learned about. https://padlet.com/razzaquis/q1qxz5s8j2kth1q4/wish/1232501495 2021-02-23 17:01:39 UTC https://padlet.com/razzaquis/q1qxz5s8j2kth1q4/wish/1232501495 I have always been aware of the term redlining but today I learned specifically what it means and how it can be harmful to black and brown communities https://padlet.com/razzaquis/q1qxz5s8j2kth1q4/wish/1232502231 2021-02-23 17:01:47 UTC https://padlet.com/razzaquis/q1qxz5s8j2kth1q4/wish/1232502231 I definitely hadn't heard of all these specific policies.
