💸 For every $1 loaned in Chicago’s white neighborhoods, only $0.12 goes to Black areas & $0.13 to Latino. JPMorgan Chase lent-41x more in white areas than Black. Lincoln Park got more investment than all Black areas combined. #HousingEquity #ChicagoData #BankingBias #Redlining @WBEZ & @CityBureau

Back in 2023 I wrote about how ranked choice voting could transform Chicago elections for @CityBureau—
