The AIA Houston space had (still has?) an exhibit on the history of redlineing in Houston (shown in the photo above). The exhibit is organized to follow each chapter in the book, The Color of Law by Richard Rothstein. Mr. Rothstien was the keynote speaker for TxA in 2022... one of the best keynotes I have ever seen.

The Houston Redlining exhibit was created by Gregory Benjamin, an architect at Page, who also presented on the topic (photo below) at the TxA 2024 conference. His session was titled Crossing the Line: How Redlining Had Affected Houston's History.
