Sorry for not being able to post last Thursday. We were closed due to the weather. Today we have a letter from Ardie Clark Halyard to the Milwaukee Metropolitan Civic Alliance. She was given an award for recognizing her accomplishments and efforts in improving conditions for black people in Milwaukee. A little bit about Ardie: her and her husband co-founded the first black owned saving and loan in Milwaukee in 1925. This bank allowed for black people to apply for loans without discrimination. Prior to this it was basically impossible for these folks to obtain a loan. As she mentioned in the last page of this letter, the bank had programs that would allow for them to put 5 dollars down. She also worked for Goodwill Industries as a director for 20 years while working as bookkeeper for the bank. In 1951, she went on to become the first women president of the NAACP of the Milwaukee chapter. Still fighting for housing and increasing membership to the chapter. Check out our collections using the link in our bio or email askarch@uwm.edu for more questions! Call number: Milw SC 111 ____ #uwmarchives #uwmspeccoll #naacpawards #milwaukeehistory #fairhousing #marchonmilwaukee https://www.instagram.com/p/CpA7OtuuM5u/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On April 11, 1968, President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1968, better known as the Fair Housing Act, into law.

It was the first time that Congress declared it illegal for private individuals to discriminate on the basis of race in the sale or rental of housing.

Remember how white nationalists came after the teaching of Black History and Drag story hours? Now they're coming after Fair Housing.

I was supposed to move into my apartment in less than a week. I messaged the landlord to ask some questions and he is denying my ESA. (Sorry some of the texts are out of order). I will be reporting him to HUD but as of right now, I have nowhere to live.
