Real
Estate sections are mostly breezy, fun profiles of the super rich
buying up houses and remodeling the ones they already own. Harmless
escapist fun? Maybe. But how we write about real estate reveals
casually racist and colonial attitudes that are rarely, if ever,
examined.
In
this episode we talk about why the way we talk about the real
estate industry matters and how the white civilizing mission never
went away. With guest Aaron Cantú.
