Housing In High Point

Jordan Green
/
Triad City Beat

Triad City Beat Senior Editor Jordan Green spent a year investigating housing ownership in lower income neighborhoods of High Point, North Carolina.

Host Frank Stasio speaks with Green about the racial lines of poverty in lower income neighborhoods, and how nearly more than 80 years of racial economic housing policies has limited access to loans and squashed opportunities for upward mobility for many African-Americans in High Point. 

  This is a rebroadcast. The original air date was January 24, 2017.

Laura Pellicer is a digital reporter with WUNC’s small but intrepid digital news team.
