Join Linda Gartz, author, educator, and archivist, for a discussion of her award-winning book, Redlined: A Memoir of Race, Change, and Fractured Community in 1960s Chicago. We'll learn about the federal government’s redlining policies that effectively separated America into Black and White, and look at digitized versions of original 1940s redlining maps. Linda's powerful presentation connects the dots between the inequities caused by the government policy of redlining and the racial profiling that continues to this day.

 In this live Zoom talk and discussion, Linda will speak, read short excerpts from Redlined, and talk about the federal government’s redlining policies that separated America into Black and White. She’ll also share digitized versions of original 1940s redlining maps. There will be plenty of time for Q&A. Presented via Zoom.
