SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Plundered: How Racist Policies Undermine Black Homeownership in America
DESCRIPTION:When Professor Bernadette Atuahene\, of USC Gould School of Law\, moved to Detroit\, she planned to study the city’s squatting phenomenon. What she accidentally found was too urgent to ignore. Her neighbors\, many of whom had owned their homes for decades\, were losing them to property tax foreclosure\, leaving once bustling Black neighborhoods blighted with vacant homes.\n\nThrough years of dogged investigation and research\, Atuahene uncovered a system of predatory governance\, where public officials raise public dollars through laws and processes that produce or sustain racial inequity — a nationwide practice in no way limited to Detroit.\n\nIn this powerful work of scholarship and storytelling\, Atuahene shows how predatory governance invites complicity from well-meaning people\, eviscerates communities\, and widens the racial wealth gap. By following the lives of two Detroit grandfathers\, one Black and the other white\, and their grandchildren\, Atuahene tells a riveting tale about racist policies\, how they take root\, why they flourish\, and who profits. Plundered's release date is Jan. 28\, 2025.\n\nLocal book talks include: \nANN ARBOR on Friday\, April 4\n6:30-8 p.m. at Literati Bookstore\, 124 E. Washington St.\, Ann Arbor\nWith special guest Patrick Cooney\, vice president at Michigan Future Inc.\nRSVP: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/literati-presents-bernadette-atuahene-tickets-1105727283069?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=listing&utm-source=cp&aff=ebdsshcopyurl\n\nDETROIT on Friday\, Jan. 31\n5-6:30 p.m. at Detroit Mercy Law School\, 651 E.
