WE BELIEVE

 

now remains the time for a national reckoning on race.

We envision a world where race no longer determines where we live or the quality of our lives, and
where all neighborhoods are thriving and inclusive.

WE WORK

to redress deep and longstanding systems of segregation.

The Redress Movement brings local communities together to leverage collective power to redress the harms of housing segregation. Our staff organizers live in our partner communities and build relationships that center Black and Brown communities most harmed by segregation. We envision a world where people have the reparative resources they deserve, and the power to build the just, flourishing communities they long to live in.

WE BUILD

Multiracial organizing efforts with our neighbors.

WILL YOU BE A LEADER?

Redress’ strategy centers on repair, which requires truth, acknowledgment, and action. Redress pursues truth through education and narrative change, acknowledges past harms through historical and fact-based research, and drives action through organizing.

Across all cities, the organizing campaigns share a unifying focus on advancing housing justice by addressing the root causes and present-day impacts of residential segregation.

Join our movement, and say YES to Redress!

LOCAL STORIES OF SEGREGATION

The Redress Movement’s StoryMaps, designed by our in-house Research Team, provide detailed stories of segregation in Denver, Milwaukee, and Charlotte – from Jim Crow to now. Our Research Team has created these Local Stories of Segregation to illustrate how segregation reflects a collective series of actions taken by various levels of government, real estate professionals, private businesses, and individuals over decades. Though many of us may be familiar with the federal government’s relationship to segregation, these StoryMaps tell the stories of the real people and places directly impacted by discriminatory policies and practices of segregation as they occurred on the ground.

We’re confident these Local Stories of Segregation will be groundbreaking to the national conversation around racial segregation, and will mobilize neighbors and activists to join The Redress Movement’s on-the-ground organizing efforts.
