that article makes it sound like he's just executing some goals and laws of legislation passed in 1968


The Fair Housing Act outlawed overt discrimination.

This extension of power is about enforcing equal outcomes.

There's a difference. This is over-reach. Every neighborhood, city, street is now under scrutiny until it achieves the government mandated diversity ratio.

This type of government attempt at enforcement of equal outcomes ruined big city public schools. It will have a similar impact on the cities themselves. Its a bigger deal than I think some of you realize.

Maybe, just not sure how you inferred that from the article you linked. But I haven't read anything about it, and perhaps you have.

It is curious they announced this in Chicago as a great deal of the trouble they have with gun crime is their move in the late 90's and early 00's to tear down public housing and spread the residents out around the city. It has blurred the lines of gang territory and helped create the problem they now have.
