The Color of Law: Housing, Segregation & Education

In Cleveland, 45 percent of African-American residents live in neighborhoods that are nearly 80 percent people of color. However, if we are to measure segregation by exposure to other races, our metro area ranks as one of the most segregated. Richard Rothstein, research associate at the Economic Policy Institute and fellow at the Thurgood Marshall Institute of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, explains.
