How did U.S. fair housing laws help encourage the settlement of more ethnically and racially mixed suburbs in the United States after the 1960s?
What will be an ideal response?
Before 1960, the suburbs were overwhelmingly white. With fair housing laws that prohibited discrimination in housing, many local formal and informal ordinances that prohibited home sales to minorities were declared unconstitutional. This plus increasing prosperity among African Americans resulted in the rapid suburbanization of African Americans and other minorities.
