Racial covenants

Latest comment: 2 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

McDuffie's racial covenants were deplorable, but they were widely used (across the entire country) at the time. See Covenant (law)#Exclusionary covenants. I think it would be fairer to restate with something similar to this (additions in italics):

Like many other developments at the time, his developments included racial covenants to exclude non-whites from home ownership, and he also promoted single-family zoning laws to exclude non-whites. These are no longer enforceable. Johninberkeley (talk) 19:08, 10 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
