17 abr 1959 ano - Ongoing Housing Discrimination against Blacks

Descrição:

"In Toronto... over 60 percent of landlords surveyed stated they would not be comfortable renting to Blacks (Mosher 1998: 95--98 in Mathieu 2010). Even orphans were housed separately. In Nova Scotia, Black orphans were placed in a separate home for 'coloured' children until the 1960s (Bernard and Bernard 2002). Segregation that barred Black families from housing played an important role in preventing Black economic mobility."
