Color of Money Reaction
I'm not sure if you have ever read the series called "Color of Money", but if you have I'm pretty sure you would agree with me in saying that it is very astonishing how blacks of equal qualifications as whites were denied loans for a house. I mean it was 1988 you would think that by then when it comes to money the only color is green but I guess not. This series is news worthy because it shows that only 21 years ago racism against blacks was still present, it just came in a different form. It makes you wonder if the banks in Atlanta or other cities are still doing this. I feel that this information could have been obtain w/o computer use b/c if the banks didn't have computers they still would've had to record where and to who the loans were being given to. The only thing that could've made this story better is if the mayor himself was denied a loan for his house.
