Plus a few more.

This isn’t just another policy change. This is a shift toward open authoritarianism, dressed up in bureaucratic language. The goal is control, fear, and white ethnostate politics.

People warned what was coming. Now it’s happening in real time.

Now it’s being adopted into official US policy. This new office will work with DHS to push the President’s immigration agenda, which already includes deportation sweeps, detention centers, and criminalizing asylum seekers.

It came from European far-right extremists and neo-Nazis who use it to talk about forcing all immigrants out, especially people of color. It’s not about return. It’s about removal.

A massive racial wealth gap, segregated schools, underfunded neighborhoods, and a housing crisis that still disproportionately harms Black communities.

Redlining wasn’t just racist policy, it was social engineering. And we’re still living in the country it built.

Families of color were shut out, forced into overcrowded, neglected neighborhoods, denied equity, and then blamed for the conditions they were forced into.

The effects of redlining tactics are everywhere.

Meanwhile, white families got low-interest federal loans to buy homes in newly segregated suburbs, homes that gained value over time and became the foundation of generational wealth, while extracting tax revenue from the urban centers to fund the suburbs.

The goal was, in a time of legal racial segregation post slavery, keep Black families out of white neighborhoods and protect white property values. Banks used these maps to deny loans, while developers wrote racist clauses into housing deeds that banned non-white residents.

The Home Owners’ Loan Corporation drew maps of cities, marking Black and immigrant neighborhoods in red, not because of income or crime, but solely because of race. These areas were labeled too “risky” for investment.

The laws may be gone, but the attitude isn’t. It’s still there in every ramp that doesn’t get built, every boss who refuses to accommodate, every system designed for everyone except disabled people.

These laws weren’t ancient history. Chicago kept theirs on the books until 1974.

The goal was to remove disabled people from public view. Keep them out of sight so they wouldn’t "upset" anyone.

Exceptions to public exposure were acceptable only if the people were subjects of demonstration (Such as 'Freak Shows' and Carnivals).
