BALTIMORE-- A Baltimore nonprofit organization filed a discrimination lawsuit claiming a local apartment complex made a few apartments available to Black residents.
According to Baltimore Neighborhoods Inc. two Black people they used as testers were told the Middlebrooke apartments and townhomes complex in Westminster had one unit available.
White people used as testers were told there were between 12 and 14 possible vacancies, the group said.
An attorney for the complex said the company had not been yet served.
* Blogger Black Buzz notes that most Apartment complexes in the USA discriminate against potential Black renters even the those Respondents that rent to a Black family or two. The discrimination against new Black home buyers and renters is very pervasive and widespread in such Maryland County's as Anne Arundel, Baltimore County, Carrol County, Cecil County, Hartford County and Howard County, particularly in Columbia Maryland. Most of these discriminators know that the State, and Federal enforcement efforts are virtually non-existent.
When Realtors, Apartment Complex Owners, and Home sellers break the law by discriminating against Blacks, they have little to fear from the government and the courts.
I would like to commend and give Kudos to the Baltimore nonprofit organization that has taken action against said Middlebrooke Apartment Complex. I hereby give you my STAND UP FOR JUSTICE AWARD for taking the Bull By The Horns against this white racism and discrimination, which is still America's number one dilemma.
