Black people make up a significant population of homeless people in the United States. On a given day in the United States, there are 500,000 homeless people, and despite comprising only 13% of the population, Black people represent on average 42% of the homeless population. This is a major social issue that presents significant criminal justice and financial challenges at the local, state, and federal levels. The purpose of this study was to investigate if systemically racist housing policies contributed to the higher rates of homelessness in the Black community. Based on the review of literature on four public services (housing, jobs, healthcare, and education) and incorporating conflict and elite theories, 10 in-person interviews were conducted, and respondents were asked to respond to a series of questions. Results revealed a connection between structurally racist housing policies and the disproportionate rates of homeless Black people in the United States. Just as this has important implications for positive social change, so does it present opportunities for how to think about reducing the recidivism rates of homelessness among all people.
