Requirements: ePUB / MOBI Reader, 1.4MB
Overview: In response to the riots of the mid-60s, Walter Thabit was hired to work with the community of East New York to develop a plan for low-and moderate-income public housing. In the years that followed, he experienced first-hand the forces that had engineered East New York s dramatic decline and that continued to work against its successful revitalization. How East New York Became a Ghetto describes the shift of East New York from a working-class immigrant neighborhood to a largely black and Puerto Rican neighborhood and shows how the resulting racially biased policies caused the deterioration of this once flourishing area.
A clear-sighted, unflinching look at one ghetto community, How East New York Became a Ghetto provides insights and observations on the histories and fates of ghettos throughout the United States.”
