Article several months old, but there wasn't a thread on it.

Full article in the description.

Black women tend to be most affected by gentrification and evictions in the US, according to experts. Mass incarceration of black men has put much of the financial and child-rearing burden on their partners, said Rasheedah Phillips, managing attorney for the housing unit at Philadelphia’s Community Legal Services, where nearly two-thirds of the clients are black women.


She quoted Matthew Desmond’s Pulitzer-winning book, Evicted: “Black men are locked up and black women are locked out.”

Today, most poor renting families spend at least half of their income on housing costs, with one in four of those families spending over 70 percent of their income just on rent and utilities…. Only one in four families who qualifies for affordable housing programs gets any kind of help. Under those conditions, it has become harder for low-income families to keep up with rent and utility costs, and a growing number are living one misstep or emergency away from eviction.

Per Pew Research Center, Black and Latinx households in the United States are about twice as likely to rent their homes as White households. Researchers noted that poor women of color, domestic violence victims and women with children have a high risk of eviction. In a 2014 study authored by Desmond, Black women with low-incomes were evicted at alarmingly higher rates than other racial groups due to factors such as having children, low wages and landlord-tenant gender dynamics.

No shock there. In certain states like Texas renters have almost no rights. Stagnating wages, rising rents and cost of living and you have a recipe for disaster and......eviction.

I never understood how it might take a large bank a year or more to get someone out of their house but some towelhead can have a family out of their apartment in three weeks (total time from start to finish). Well, maybe I do: renters tend to be black and homeowners white. Same goes for car loans; white people can usually finance through the manufacturer or other reputable source that is trained and expected to work with their customers (many white) while dealerships that cater to low income buyers (black) will cut your car off remotely or pick your shyt up for being even a few days behind.

America y'all.

That's bullshyt. All this shyt is by design like the poster said above. When a house is divided; it can be easily conquered.

boy STFU...

you never been a homeowner

much less even paid rent

you been a non puzzy getting underachiever living with your parents for awhile now

STOP SPEAKING ON REAL LIFE ISSUES WHEN YOU ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO DEAL WITH THEM..........

ive lived the RESIDENT /RENT/OWN life since the 90s breh......

it's more to this issue than u think

come switch positions with me ...who knows damn well that Black Women have greater chances at finding RESIDENCY than black men

do to section 8

single mother advocacy groups

income based housing for mothers

women transitional centers

social programs

My black azz don't get none of that shyt......i be lucky if they take my application as a BLACK MAN

you only seeing one side of the story...

lets' talk about all the black women who lose housing due to poor money management decisions

living above thier means

not securing a two income household

cause they too busy messing around or getting knocked up by some street dude or hustler....

and the ones who do get the child support damn sure ain't using it towards shelter or utitlities like they should

that's why when i date...i do my little background screen

and usually when im on the court magistrate site the one common "charge" i see is DISPOSSERY WARRANT (EVICTION NOTICE)

like the last chick i dated ..beautiful woman....living in a townhouse on the "good side of town" but the byatch has been evicted 4 times according to the court records...

but what do you expect from a woman who rarely cooks ...eating at high end restaurants........and with an insane shoe fetish and likes to travel on a 30k salary....

if she KNEW better..she WOULD do better
