Dr. Diane Pinderhughes, Notre Dame Presidential Faculty Fellow and the Rev. Edmund P. Joyce, C.S.C. Professor of Africana Studies and Political Science, will examine and contextualize redlining as a practice in American Culture. In "Worker's Home Lecture - Redlining in Amercian Cities," she will address how this practice was a tool to deny African American families opportunities to create generational propertied wealth. Without access to build and buy homes in certain areas, African Americans were essentially segregated by neighborhoods and resources around the nation including South Bend.

This engaging lecture will occur at The History Museum on Sunday, April 14 at 2 pm, and will also include tours of the exhibit, Undesign the Red Line, as well as a 1950's African American family's home.
