Race, Politics, and Community Development Funding: The Discolor of Money
Share an insider's view of how race and politics impact the
distribution of city services and how the promises of elected
African Americans and liberal whites to poor communities are often
broken. Authored by a noted expert in urban studies, Race,
Politics, and Community Development Funding: The Discolor of Money
follows federal money designated to alleviate urban poverty and
blight at the local level. Using a variety of research methods, the
author shows how key actors (mayor, council members, public
bureaucrats) often contribute to the misuse of funds. You'll
find helpful charts, tables, and graphs that illustrate the flow of
federal dollars. To view an excerpt online, find the book in our
