American Project

The Rise and Fall of a Modern Ghetto

Omschrijving

High-rise public housing was a signature of the post–World War II city. A hopeful experiment in providing temporary, inexpensive homes for all Americans, the “projects“ soon became synonymous with the black urban poor, isolation and overcrowding, drugs, gang violence, and neglect. Here, Venkatesh seeks to salvage public housing’s troubled legacy.
