SUMMARY:Mapping Prejudice in Anoka County
DESCRIPTION:Discriminatory covenants were once used to keep people of color 
 from buying or occupying houses and land around Minnesota\, including Anoka 
 County. The result is a century of segregated communities\, setting off 
 intentionally-placed patterns that paint the landscape we live in today. 
 Even after they were made illegal\, for a long time there was no way for 
 homeowners to separate themselves from the racist language in their 
 property records. Minnesota law now allows property owners to renounce-- 
 not erase-- the discriminatory language. \n\nAnoka County Library and 
 League of Women Voters- Anoka\, Blaine\, and Coon Rapids welcome back 
 Mapping Prejudice for an updated presentation on the history of racial 
 covenants and their impact. Please join us at the Northtown Library to 
 learn more and how to find racial covenants in Anoka County property 
 records. Registration is highly encouraged\, but not required.
