Nonprofit homeownership programs that push integration still subject black families to cost-burdening surveillance

Evidence

Part of FCS’s stated mission is building strong neighborhoods; it offers both owning and renting options for mixed-income families, and asks people who qualify for some of its homeownership programs to commit to investing time into the surrounding community. That should be a good thing, when it comes to black homeownership—and in fact, the value of the Hancocks’ home has increased. — Dorothy A. Brown, Getting to Reparations, 1274

• QUESTION: Does Brown think FCS is doing the right thing but insufficiently, or does she consider such programs structurally flawed in their focus on white acceptance?
