In the wake of the protests following the death of George Floyd, I speak with Matthew Lewis of California YIMBY to explore the relationship between housing policies and racial inequity. Matthew and I discuss the history of housing segregation and redlining in the United States, the rise of the YIMBY (Yes in my backyard) movement, regulatory mechanisms that perpetuate inequality, the relationship between housing reform and climate change, and finally, the path forward towards a fairer system.
