After World War II there were many benefits and assistance open to military veterans such as housing and education. What is not well known is the black veterans were widely excluded and discriminated against ever receiving much of these benefits.
The huge Levittown housing development established seven huge housing development cities in the Eastern United States that openly excluded blacks and for that matter ALL racial minoroties from purchasing or renting in these cities.
The over all consequence of this post war radical discrimination was to exclude blacks from the advantages and benefits of the Boom and growth all the way into recent years.
