Richard Rothstein's 2017 best-selling book The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America outlined the history of law, regulations, policies, and programs that segregated the American landscape. In Just Action: How to Challenge Segregation Enacted under the Color of Law, Richard Rothstein writes with his daughter, affordable housing advocate Leah Rothstein, about how that legacy can be reversed.
Most valuable for the vignettes of small movements by individuals reaching out to neighbors, cross-town faith and community groups, city action spurred by organizing to redress and counteract the enumerated and on-going harmful effects of racial segregation.
