The Color of Law: A forgotten history of how our government segregated America by Richard Rothstein. I recommend watching the documentary, The Pruitt-Igoe Myth as well, if you haven't seen it (for free on vimeo). Also check out this online project with redlining maps of major US cities, https://dsl.richmond.edu/panorama/redlining/#loc=5/39.1/-94.58
