White exclusionary neighborhoods remain segregated without formal Jim Crow laws

Evidence

Anti-mosque activities should be read as part of the history of property lawfare and community activism, even violence, in which white majorities have excluded minorities from their neighborhoods claiming that they would bring blight, violence, reduce property values, cause interracial marriages, and a host of other social ills. Through denial of access to property, the racial order and purity of these neighborhoods was historically maintained and has resulted in highly segregated communities in 2021 even in states and cities that did not have Jim Crow laws. While Muslims have been accused of creating mythical no-go zones in Europe and the United States, some communities are in fact anti-Black, anti- Latinx, and anti-Muslim “no-go zones.” — Cyra Akila Choudhury, Racecraft and Identity in the Emergence…, 510

Categorization

• ADDENDUM: Directly supports the grafting article’s theme of property as racialized infrastructure — residential exclusion via lawfare operates as durable infrastructure maintaining the racial order beyond formal segregation law.
• XREF: Connects to the reader’s core question about the machine recoiling on its targets: the same property-exclusion racecraft repertoire honed on Black Americans now targets Muslims, showing domestic shared-territory standing matters for the inversion comparison. — connects to: White neighbors terrorized Black families until they fled white neighborhoods. — Cyra Akila Choudhury, Racecraft and Identity in the Emergence…, 479; Racism persists even where formal segregation laws have been abolished; Contemporary racial inequality persists without explicit racist laws or intentions — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 1907 (+4 more)
