Prof. Orfield Quoted in The Economist on Racial Divisions in Twin Cities

Professor Myron Orfield, director of the Law School’s Institute on Metropolitan Opportunity, was quoted in The Economist in an article examining particular racial inequities in the Midwest region of the United States. In this century, said Orfield, racial divisions have increased in Minneapolis-St. Paul. Of the 25 cities with the worst racial segregation in America, 15 are in the Midwest.
