Commission urges Obama to enforce fair housing
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/12/09/AR2008120901953.html
By Hope Yen - The Associated Press
Statement From Okianer Christian Dark, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs at the Howard University School of Law Given at the National Press Club, December 10, 2008 at the press conference on the National Commission On Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity’s Report on the Future of Fair Housing December 11, 2008
During the hearings, we heard from several witnesses about the connection between the foreclosure crisis and the lack of fair housing enforcement. How is this possible?
It is well documented that the proliferation of discriminatory lending practices in communities of color over the years, created an opportunity for financial institutions and others to target vulnerable minority communities as a means of maximizing short term profits. As one witness stated, “the subprime market discovered African American and Latino communities and targeted them for unfair and deceptive loan products and lending practices.”
