Dr. Leroy Patrick discusses geographical and demographical boundaries of Pittsburgh and Pittsburgh neighborhoods, particularly Homewood, discussing the racial makeup and the impact of real estate practices on segregation. Dr. Patrick points out the role of realtors in maintaining racial segregation by manipulating housing options for Black individuals, often discouraging them from certain areas. He also mentions the involvement of some religious leaders in attempts to keep certain neighborhoods predominantly White. Patrick also talks about political involvement within the Black community.
