Dr. Taylor is currently working on a manuscript titled\u00a0<i>Race for Profit: Black Housing and the Urban Crisis of the 1970s<\/i>, which looks at the federal government&#8217;s promotion of single-family homeownership in Black communities after the urban rebellions of the 1960s. Taylor looks at how the federal government&#8217;s turn to market-based solutions in its low-income housing programs in the 1970s impacted Black neighborhoods, Black women on welfare, and emergent discourses on the urban \u201cunderclass.&#8221; Taylor is interested in the role of private sector forces, typically hidden in public policy making and execution, in the \u201curban crisis\u201d of the 1970s.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>This is the second public event in BCRW&#8217;s Poverty and Housing Working Group series.<\/div>\n<p><a class=\"button warning radius\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/e\/an-evening-with-keeanga-yamahtta-taylor-tickets-41563112388\">RSVP<\/a><\/p>\n<div><strong>Details and Accessibility<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>This event is free and open to the public.
