The document reflects on the past 40 years since the Fair Housing Act and challenges that still remain. While some progress has been made in reducing housing discrimination and increasing African American homeownership and suburban growth, significant residential segregation and lack of access to opportunity persist. The document discusses the concepts of integration versus desegregation and how true integration involves mutual and equitable inter-group relations rather than mere assimilation. It also examines how predatory lending and the foreclosure crisis have exacerbated housing inequalities and isolation of minority communities.

Much ink has been spilled debating whether the arrival of Amazon and its 2,000 tech jobs is “good” or “bad” for Boston. The answer to that question depends on two and a half questions that haven’t been adequately explored.

Confronting Redlining: Understanding its Impact and Building a Fairer FutureDanon Real Estate
Redlining is a malicious practice that has plagued the United States for decades, with its effects still being felt by marginalized communities today. This discriminatory practice has its roots in the early 20th century, when federal housing policies and mortgage lending practices effectively institutionalized segregation and economic disenfranchisement of minority communities. The history of redlining is a dark stain on the social fabric of this country, and it is crucial to understand its origins and impact in order to combat its lasting effects.
The Kirwan Institute’s past year was marked by wide-ranging accomplishments which touched all three U.S. coastlines and many areas in between, with significant impact right here at The Ohio State University.

In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
