Facing Segregation: Housing Policy Solutions for a Stronger Society

Since the passing of the Fair Housing Act, integration by social class has decreased. In Facing Segregation, Metzger and Webber bring together notable scholars to reflect on how to use policy to advance housing justice and show how the power of government can be harnessed to a constructive end.

Molly W. Metzger, PhD, is assistant professor in the Brown School at Washington University in St. Louis. Dr. Metzger's research focuses on public policy, structural racism, and residential segregation in the United States. She is a community-engaged scholar, working with housing advocates in the St. Louis region to bring an evidence-based approach to activism.

Henry S. (Hank) Webber, MPP, is executive vice chancellor and chief administrative officer at Washington University in St. Louis. He is also professor of practice at the Brown School and the School of Architecture and Urban Design. Mr. Webber's research and writing center on community development, mixed-income housing, racial and economic segregation, and the role of anchor institutions in urban development.
