Black People : WHO IS BEING EVICTED CURRENTLY

Racial and Gender Disparities among Evicted Americans

https://evictionlab.org

The Eviction Lab aims to better understand the causes and consequences of eviction in the United States. To do so, we have compiled court records from across the country into a national database. These court records provide a unique opportunity to examine the prevalence of eviction across time and space. But these records contain limited information about each case: case numbers, names of plaintiffs (e.g., landlords, property managers) and defendants (tenants), defendant addresses, filing dates, and case outcomes. Defendant gender and race/ethnicity are not included in eviction records.
Documenting populations disproportionately at risk of eviction informs researchers, advocates, and policymakers striving to better understand and address long-standing disparities in access to stable housing. The lack of data on defendant gender, race, and ethnicity limit our ability to address some of the most pressing questions in the field. Are Black and Latinx renters evicted at higher rates than their white counterparts? Are women renters evicted at higher rates than men? Is this true for all racial and ethnic groups? Answering these questions is central to addressing the long history of excluding women and communities of color from housing, banking, and credit opportunities in the U.S

Why Black Women Are More Likely to Face Eviction

Evictions do not affect everyone equally.
Millions of renters in this country have struggled to make rent after losing income during the pandemic. And Black renters, particularly Black women, are more likely to be evicted than white renters.
Jean Kendrick and her son were evicted during the early days of the pandemic. We follow their journey to find affordable housing, while examining the factors driving the racial disparities in eviction rates — including generations of racist housing policies and predatory home lending practices.

‘I am beside myself’: millions in the US face evictions amid looming crisis

This article is more than 3 years old
About 19 to 23 million people are estimated to be at risk of being evicted after federal programs to help 30 million unemployed Americans expired in July
One night last week instead of sleeping Florence Hobbs hopped around her apartment on a broken ankle, trying to pack everything she owned as fast as was possible. Her landlord had given her a 24-hour eviction notice and she didn’t want her things tossed out of the apartment in Charleston, South Carolina, when the clock ran out.
The 51-year-old hadn’t been able to pay rent since April, when her job as a caregiver ended with the death of her patient. She then had surgery, caught Covid-19 and broke her ankle while working at a new job. Friends helped her clear the apartment and are giving her a place to stay, but she is at a loss for what she is supposed to do next.

Who has spoken for mandatory accounting in the schools since Sputnik?

My father owned a grocery store. I asked him about learning accounting when I was 12. He said, "Accounting is hard."

I didn't say anything.

I imagine being there today saying, "I don't give a d*** how hard it is!"

I worked for IBM. Honkies pretending s*** is more difficult than it really is, is Standard Operating Procedure as far as I am concerned. Most of them aren't that smart.

Fifth graders accounting collegian

You will find an article from 2003 where a female college professor writes about 5th graders learning accounting as well as college students.

We are being handed a load of BS and if you don't believe it then you're "Acting White".
