Description
Published by the Sacramento Committee for Fair Housing in November 1961 and written by Dr. Leonard D. Cain, Jr. Dr. Cain, this document provides a detailed overview of how racial discrimination in housing was practiced in the Sacramento area, where it was practiced, and by whom. It is abridged from a longer article published in the spring 1961 edition of the Sacramento State College Review. The Sacramento Committee for Fair Housing was formed in 1961 as an outcropping of the Sacramento Council of Churches. The group’s purpose was “to help insure equality of opportunity for housing to all persons of metropolitan Sacramento without regard to race, religion or national origin.”
