Remember episode 1? Nimo and Jas weighed in on federal policies that contributed to the history of racism in the United States. This week’s episode focuses on housing, environmental, and transportation policies that attempt to address past wrongdoings and injustices. These policies are not perfect and come with their own set of challenges; however, they created a foundation for equitable practices. Press play to hear the following attempted remedies:The Fair Housing Act, Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC), and Inclusionary Zoning practices in major cities.Title VI, Environmental Justice Executive Order 12898, and examples of local EJ policies.Urban Mass Transportation Act, creation of the Federal Transit Administration, and Complete Streets.Thank you for listening and tune in every-other Tuesday where Nimo and Jas keep it Four Degrees to the Streets.Follow us on Twitter and Instagram @the4degreespod.Or send us an email to connect with us!Resources:National Fair Housing: Making Every Neighborhood A Place Of OpportunityHUD: Inclusionary Zoning and Mixed-Income CommunitiesCity of Atlanta: Inclusionary Zoning NYC: Area Median Income - HPDCityHealth: Affordable Housing/Inclusionary ZoningNYC Zoning: District GuidesGov.
