The Homeownership Gap Is Worse Than 1968 – Here’s the Proof
Tonight we break down the 50th annual State of Black America report from the National Urban League — the flagship civil-rights scorecard — and what its CEO Marc Morial meant when he said Black America has “gone backward in the last 18 months.” We connect the report’s hardest numbers — nearly 900,000 Black jobs lost since November 2025, a homeownership gap wider than before the 1968 Fair Housing Act, and a wealth gap where the median Black household holds just 15 cents on the white dollar — to the policy choices driving them, and to the fact that the very same week, the government’s own jobs data confirmed the slowdown.
What’s inside:

• The wealth gap: 15 cents of Black household wealth per white dollar (National Urban League)
