Interracial Housing was first published in 1951. Minnesota Archive
Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books
once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the
original University of Minnesota Press editions. One of the most
crucial strains on democracy today is the practice of racial
segregation. In the press, in local, state, and federal government
agencies, in fact, wherever people thrash out the problems of
democratic living, the question is being discussed. This book
offers facts which throw new light on an important issue in the
overall problem of racial segregation. Here are the results of a
study comparing two kinds of public housing-segregated and
non-segregated. Two low-rent, public housing projects in which
Negroes and whites live as next door neighbors were compared with
two similar housing developments in which Negroes and whites are
assigned to separate buildings or areas. The study reveals how the
people living in these contrasting ways differ in their social
relations, community morale, racial attitudes, and other
significant social aspects. The research procedures used are
explained, and general conclusions about changing prejudices are
offered. Social scientists, psychologists, housing officials, and
community leaders concerned with the problems not only of housing
but of race relations in general will find helpful guidance here.
In addition to providing much-needed data on an important social
problem, the book offers a valuable demonstration of research
techniques in social science.
