Why covenants matter today <br />Covenants divided our community by race. These residential segregation <br />patterns persist today. And this physical segregation undergirds our <br />contemporary racial disparities. <br />"While the covenants are there, there is still room for people to think that <br />although it cannot be legally enforced it is nonetheless a promise that <br />they are morally obligated to keep. And that's an argument in my view for <br />removing them.” Evan McKenzie, professor of political science at the <br />University of Illinois at Chicago <br />Advocates for the removal of racially restrictive covenants reason that the <br />restrictions, even if illegal, provide justification for subtle racism.
