See Planning Magazine for our take on “Owned: A Tale of Two Americas,” the new documentary by Giorgio Angelini. The film explores the current housing crisis — and the long history of inequality and racism that led us here.
Importantly, the film shows that while the 1960s’ civil rights legislation was meant to address these problems, enforcement has never been strong, and racial disparities in ownership and wealth, once established, have persisted.
The film is showing around the country in limited-theatrical release and available for streaming on iTunes and other platforms.
