The Mapping Inequality: Redlining in New Deal America project is a digital humanities initiative that explores the historical practice of redlining in the United States. By utilizing records from the Home Owners' Loan Corporation (HOLC) created between 1935 and 1940, the project presents an interactive map that illustrates how neighborhoods were graded based on their perceived desirability and risk for mortgage lending. The HOLC's assessments categorized neighborhoods into color-coded zones, with areas deemed "best" receiving an "A" grade (colored green) and those considered "hazardous" marked with a "D" grade (colored red). This mapping reveals the systemic racial discrimination embedded in housing policies, as neighborhoods with Black residents were often labeled as undesirable, leading to long-lasting impacts on wealth accumulation and segregation. Users can explore original digitized records, full transcriptions, and curated excerpts that highlight significant details from the HOLC assessments.
