New article discussing the legal strategy behind the whites only "Return To The Land" (RTTL) housing community going up outside Ravenden, Arkansas. Included a quick overview of past attempts at similar projects:
RTTL has described itself as a “private membership association (PMA) for individuals and families with traditional views and European ancestry.” Its leaders claim they are not in the business of selling land and therefore do not need to follow laws intended to stop racial segregation in housing. RTTL’s legal theory has yet to be tested in court; however, the Arkansas attorney general’s office said it is reviewing the matter. Other experts have said this is a clear violation of the law. “Federal and state law, including the Fair Housing Act, prohibit housing discrimination based on race, period,” ReNika Moore, director of the racial justice program at the American Civil Liberties Union, told The New York Times. “Repackaging residential segregation as a ‘private club’ is still a textbook violation of federal law.”

CW: Queer media representation in the early 2000s, thread
At the same time, however, I want to end on an optimistic note, and watching #TippingTheVelvet reminded me that when I first saw it, #SameSexMarriage wasn't legal in the US, and it is now, even if its future is in doubt. Also, at the time, the city near where I went to college was having a referendum on #LGBTQHousing and #HousingDiscrimination, which eventually won #HousingRights for queer people. Dan Savage's #ItGetsBetter campaign was going viral.
We were fighting the bigots then, and it felt like we were winning. Now it feels like we're on the backfoot in that fight, but that doesn't mean the fight is over. We've come really far, too far to give up now, and we have the opportunity to both protect what we've won while pushing for true #justice and #equity.
