Nonsense. Negroes dont live in ghettos anymore. Good heavens, look at the housing projects in the city. Theyre not ghettos. Of course they are anyplace where a human being is shut in or shut out because of the color of his skin is a ghetto in the real sense of the word. I know that now. I guess i knew it all along, but didnt think much about it though. But they are ghettos. Well, mr. Candy, its not really up to us, you know. Its up to you alone whether the sale will be made.

1957 a look at the issue of housing discrimination. All of the way home dramatizes the flurry of rumors and prejudice that arrive in a fictional white suburb. Written by political activist it was promoted by over a dozen civil groups including the naacp and the National Urban league. A quiet street in a quiet neighborhood in the middle of the 20th century. When you look for a house, what are you looking for . What do you see . People who lived in square fine ample houses. The ferocious slums. Many still stand, many torn down, rebuilding among the people and neighbors. A way being made for the projects. Signs of change in all of the cities. And still, the dark red blindness of walls.
