       -- The decoy of black capitalism -- The free market 
       confronts black poverty -- The color of money matters. 
520    "When the Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1863, 
       the black community owned less than one percent of the 
       United States' total wealth. More than 150 years later, 
       that number has barely budged. The Color of Money pursues 
       the persistence of this racial wealth gap by focusing on 
       the generators of wealth in the black community: black 
       banks. Studying these institutions over time, Mehrsa 
       Baradaran challenges the myth that black communities could
       ever accumulate wealth in a segregated economy. Instead, 
       housing segregation, racism, and Jim Crow credit policies 
       created an inescapable, but hard to detect, economic trap 
       for black communities and their banks. The Catch-22 of 
       black banking is that the very institutions needed to help
       communities escape the deep poverty caused by 
       discrimination and segregation inevitably became victims 
       of that same poverty. Not only could black banks not 
       "control the black dollar" due to the dynamics of bank 
       depositing and lending but they drained black capital into
       white banks, leaving the black economy with the scraps. 
       Baradaran challenges the long-standing notion that black 
       banking and community self-help is the solution to the 
       racial wealth gap. These initiatives have functioned as a 
       potent political decoy to avoid more fundamental reforms 
       and racial redress. Examining the fruits of past policies 
       and the operation of banking in a segregated economy, she 
       makes clear that only bolder, more realistic views of 
       banking's relation to black communities will end the cycle
       of poverty and promote black wealth."--Jacket.
