Massey and Denton

Massey and Denton refer to sociologists who conducted significant research on urban segregation in the United States, particularly in their influential book "American Apartheid." They examined how racial and economic segregation shapes cities and impacts the lives of marginalized groups, especially African Americans. Their work highlights that this segregation results from both historical policies and systemic inequalities, leading to limited access to resources like education and employment. Their research emphasizes the need for social justice and more equitable urban policies to address these disparities and foster inclusive communities.
