Film Screening: “Owned – A Tale of Two Americas”
Join the AACC Economics Department for a screening of this PBS documentary directed by Giorgio Angelini.
Is the dream of home ownership in America a false promise? While the government’s postwar housing policy created the world’s largest middle class, it also set America on two divergent paths – one of perceived wealth and the other of systematically defunded, segregated communities.
