i, when i was living there, it was at a very particular moment and that was coming out of postwar trajectory that created the need for that type of housing. ah. returning g i, you could buy a house for as little as a $100.00 down and about $99.00 a month. and that was partly as a federal government was ensuring your mortgage. we had the g i bill encouraging construction of new homes. so the whole idea is your government wants you to have a home. so this was an easy way to sort of jumpstart housing industry and make home ownership possible without those subsidies, lower middle class families. they've never been able to afford to massive movement to the suburbs that we saw in the late 19. for these 250960

4:46 am
go to the system that will give the people more good will be the better system in this one particular moment, nixon was right. ah, this was the strength of the american economy. i can remember, even as a kid, looking at house magazine and seen the incredible vision of the future, the house represented in those pages was something that you could aspire to. and that was starting to become a reality on me. imagine how wonderful it would be to live in the house like that. the future, the company is the present in the house of the future. warehouse of $999.00 will be virtually maintenance free.
4:47 am
4:48 am
me. me? hello. hey buddy, give me like 45 minutes. all right, buddy, boy, i only thing that leverage did that way long files. that's the only thing that i did that was wrong and i'll be the 1st one to admit this note blacks and loud blacks. and that is disgraceful. ah, as i'm fighting alongside a black man was willing to die the and he can't buy
4:49 am
a house next to me and live again me assignment. i don't make any sense. i do select believe we were looking for a place to buy a home. we love to live in town. we like to share. we like the advantages that left counting them offer in comparison to other cities and we understood that it was going to be all right, we're very happy to buy a home here. ah . busy when you come to this neighborhood, you know, immediately it's different and launch one together.
4:50 am
it gives you a feeling park like the settings who's i was struck by how familiar it felt. it was a connection to a town that they both developed as opposed to the suburbs. i believe, i believe. and he built these houses. he really built you houses for the veterans coming home from the war. it was hard for him to get financing for these houses. because they were so different, the whole social part was partner his design and for probably shouldn't even say, so don't. i'm not even going to was
4:51 am
a socialist. and i think a lot of the people that moved in here were i'm going to get 12 percent. oh, my father is greg green, fairly well known california architect from the forties and fifties. so the end of the letter i just came into my hotel room from an interesting and unexpected visit through the day from drafting rooms at yale, or one and a half days of philip johnson's jewel new canaan. here's the real fascist intellectual. i started rummaging through some old papers and then i came across this here, 200 page or 10200 page filed the f b. i kept on them and they were watching everything he did from the mid forties to the mid fifties. gregory,
4:52 am
believe that decent housing should be the right of everyone. not just the privilege of very wealthy people. 12 percent of the population is black. there should be a lot of black families living out here. yeah, this is only a beginning, but i think it's wonderful. well, let's see how wonderful it is. what i want to melon ryan's come friday and i use in terms of the neighborhood was supposed to be twice as large. the plants was for $100.00 homes and only $52.00 were built. the f ha at the time, didn't think that integrated neighborhoods would be attractive to the general public. and they're providing mortgage insurance and in their minds that would
4:53 am
bring down the value of the home you know, most people in america, the value of those homes and parents passing that on to their children that made the biggest difference african americans were left out of that that inability to participate and what created american middle class has a lot to do with the problems we have now. the really interesting dial and that and think about the longer deeper history of what housings meant in the united states. not just that old question of the american dream, but the bigger question of who the dream has been for ah,
4:55 am
a lot of bad habits. the houses are beautiful, but golden outside house stuff is tough. oh, as a kid, i didn't really understand how segregated the city was because i never left my areas. one time. my dad got his house for a week is like literally right outside the city. and he had a nice apartment complex and cool every day. brilliant people, a decent car. it wasn't loud at night. it was fun. but when i got back to the city, they got evicted. my dad sent us somewhere for a week just to get the house together. i've moved too many times to count. i've lived in so many neighborhoods. it doesn't allow you to gauge what is normal.
4:56 am
there's neighborhoods so pretty much like the same. a lot of these houses vacant. we used to go all behind them in up in them. almost like it's ready to go in and find everything or left before they got evicted. you know, a jack bought them for over some like the the community didn't feel it does now you see earlier, because we cases just haven't fun. baltimore is a microcosm of many urban areas in america. and it is like dickens would say the tale of 2 cities. you have great investments in certain parts of town and other investments looking like a ghost town. baltimore in many ways is the ground 0 for racial apartheid in america. is where racial zoning was invented in
4:57 am
1910, and then racially restrictive covenants were also created. here we have a miss in this country that the reason neighborhoods are segregated is because people like to live with one another who are of the same race. or because african americans have too little income to move into white neighborhoods. or because there's private prejudice that prevents african americans from buying homes and white neighborhoods. and that's all true. but it's a tiny, tiny part of the truth. there's intentionality with the capital decisions that were made around housing in the forty's and in the fifty's. and i think people are law to sleep thinking that certain things happen and by default, rather than by design, you have the f, a, j, the federal housing administration of bidders administration. they subsidize home building and suburbs, and then they say is racially exclusive. it means white people can move out to
4:58 am
these areas. but what is probably a surprise for a lot of people is that red lighting is created by federal government. that's when the white bank is drawn red lines around black areas and don't give up no grain. oh, the military mission against them will conclude on august 31st. i want some for who did a good to us all the quote, i quoted young george. and i really need proof from. i got to the southern company said that the cut cut over what was the quote to show me that this was the right weapon against the right to go. nobody bombarded was filled out
4:59 am
5:00 am
penny week begins on a gallon stand still dominates. those headlines this monday from us cobble airport stay shut, done for another 24 hours after it was close all day on sunday to try and clear the huge backlog of people desperate to leave. thousands of would be actually heading for the only way out about taliban control. country right now. also coming up to recovery this somebody africans who work for coalition forces did manage to flee cold comfort for their relatives remaining in the country living in fear for their lives. we spoke to one translator on terms of complete anonymity because the risks remain so high. i believe that americans are responsible for this thing and then today's anybody who will be killed as a result of this will be on the hands of the american government.
