Along with the racially inspired residential segregation that developed, so too did the economic incentive to keep those policies in place. The economy generated out of Black isolation helped to ingrain these practices in such ways that even when housing options began to expand for African Americans, they were constrained within the segregation paradigm. This not only made Black children vulnerable to dangerous vermin, but the absence of housing options outside the urban ghetto meant their parents were easily coerced into paying high prices for the substandard housing.\u201d (Taylor, 28-29)\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>2.\u2018Urban renewal\u2019 \u2013 a series of policies that the federal government supported in cities after World War II to bulldoze \u2018slums\u2019 and rebuild them via public housing or mixed-use development\n<\/div>\n<div>3.
