How does it work?

The Color of Law reveals the hidden truth behind America’s divided neighborhoods. Through meticulous research, verified records, and powerful storytelling, Richard Rothstein proves that racial segregation wasn’t accidental — it was created by law. The book uncovers how government policies at every level enforced separation through zoning laws, housing subsidies, and lending practices that favored white communities. By connecting historical evidence to present-day inequality, it helps readers see how the past still shapes where we live today — and why acknowledging that truth is essential to creating a fairer future.
