Abstract

Making business law topics relevant to students' lived experiences can be challenging, but there is one business issue that all students share: the need for housing. One aspect of the present housing crisis is the continuing patterns of residential segregation. To address the legacy costs of past practices of residential segregation, students should understand the underlying role of business law in residential housing and how business law can be used to solve these challenges. To aid business law and real estate instructors wishing to address these issues, this teaching note provides exercises using Richard Rothstein's The Color of Law. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
