Journalist Antero Pietila delivers a compelling examination of how racial and religious discrimination molded Baltimore's urban landscape. Through detailed accounts of policies like redlining, restrictive covenants, and blockbusting, Pietila reveals how systemic bigotry confined African Americans and Jews to segregated neighborhoods, influencing the city's development from the 1880s through the early 21st century.
