Not Welcome Here: Racism and Property in America

Autor J. Rosie Tighe
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 aug 2026
This book examines the history and current context of racism in housing and neighborhoods to understand how racism and white supremacy have hindered true equality. This book explores how Americans use various means - from racial intimidation to restrictive zoning - to continue to exclude entire races and classes of people from their neighborhoods and communities. We live in a society that claims to value diversity – of opinions; of religions; of perspectives; of race – but Tighe shows how spatial segregation and inequality present in society fails those values. It will be of interest to academics, researchers, policymakers, urban planners, lawyers, and advocates working in urban issues such as housing, race, and class.

Recenzii

“The racism and the anti-black prejudice, in particular, that has animated American housing markets over the past 150 years is as horrific as it is relentless. In this book Rosie Tighe lays out the subtle and unsubtle actions of intentional exclusion and discrimination that have helped to produce the American urban landscape. Not Welcome Here is comprehensive in its description of the actions of white residents and real estate professionals, and the racist attitudes enshrined in public policy at all levels of government that have produced the American system of residential segregation and inequality.”
Ed Goetz, Director, Center for Urban and Regional Affairs, University of Minnesota
Not Welcome Here is a thorough and desperately needed examination of the fundamental racism that has permeated urban housing markets in the U.S. from the very beginning and into the twenty-first century. Tighe pulls no punches. This is the book needed to provide a corrective to the sometimes overly simplistic market-fundamentalist notions of ‘just build more housing’ that increasingly dominate housing policy discussions. In an age where serious scholarship is sadly too often ignored in favor of social media posts, this book is a must read.”
Dan Immergluck, Professor of Urban Studies, Georgia State University
“This powerful book offers a bold and unwavering examination of how the legacy of racism continues to shape America’s landscape of racial and spatial inequality. At a time when certain federal leaders reject systemic discrimination as an explanation for economic and social disparities, Tighe delivers a compelling argument for how structural racism and white supremacy remain central barriers to equity and opportunity for all. Rather than relying on national policy interventions, Not Welcome Here highlights several critical local strategies to confront entrenched injustice. Essential reading for scholars, urban planners, and policymakers, this timely manuscript is an indispensable roadmap for addressing racial segregation and advancing equitable community development in an era of deep political division.”
Derek Hyra, Professor of Public Administration and Policy at American University and author of Slow and Sudden Violence: Why and When Uprisings Occur
