African American Museum of Iowa's Mapping Exclusion: Redlining in Iowa Exhibit

Join us at the Franklin Avenue Library for Mapping Exclusion: Redlining in Iowa. This exhibit from the African American Museum of Iowa explores the impact of housing discrimination and segregation in the state of Iowa. Redlining, the systematic denial of services by government agencies and the private sector to residents of specific neighborhoods, impacted black populations in seven Iowa cities: Cedar Rapids, Council Bluffs, Sioux City, Dubuque, Davenport, Des Moines, and Waterloo. Mapping Exclusion: Redlining in Iowa will be on display at the west end of the Franklin Avenue Library 4/1/25-5/30/25.
