CLEAR Reports on Black Land Loss, Recommends Strategies for Helping Future Generations
Northeastern Law’s Center for Law, Equity and Race (CLEAR) released a report in November on the multifaceted challenges surrounding Black land loss, including its impact on building generational wealth within many Black communities. The report aims to empower readers with the strategies and tools to make a meaningful impact and preserve land for future generations.
“The struggle to retain and promote Black land ownership is ongoing, and we are pleased to make this resource available,” said Dr. Deborah Jackson, managing director of CLEAR. “We look forward to continuing to contribute to the work being done in this area.”
