- Racial Integration and Community Revitalization: Applying the Fair Housing Act to the Low Income Housing Tax Credit
At the heart of a debate about the future of American race, housing, and urban policy are two important lawsuits recently filed in state courts in New Jersey and Connecticut. Plaintiffs challenge the authority of their respective state housing finance agencies to fund subsidized units, with US Treasury issued tax credits, in neighborhoods of racial and social isolation. These cases seek clarification of the Fair Housing Act of 1968, parallel state fair housing provisions, the equal protection clauses of state and federal constitutions, and the meaning of the two most important state fair housing cases ever decided. Community development forces argue that the building and rebuilding of low-income housing in poor segregated neighborhoods must continue and is the only way, within the exist...

- Settlement Real Estate Sale in New Jersey
Of the nearly eighty settlements promoted on Amana's website, the organization chose to promote twelve to the attendees of the Teaneck event. One hour after the presentation began, attendees were climbing all over one another to get at the pile of "sell sheets" for the dozen communities - including the infamous Kiryat Arba in Hebron. The atmosphere inside was very similiar to that of a time-share presentation with an Amana representative fielding questions over the public address system while other representatives met individually with prospective buyers. Rabbi [Steven Pruzansky] chose to hold the presentation in his synagogue's sanctuary, to emphasize the attempt at theologically justifying the settlements. Journalists were barred from entering the sanctuary, providing synagogue repres...
