Author: American Suburbs Have Become a Ponzi Scheme
Once the home of the American dream, suburban neighborhoods now reveal a systemic racial disparity, with new Black and Brown residents struggling with the declining conditions left by white occupants who have moved out. In his book "Disillusioned," reporter Benjamin Herold looks at 5 suburbs across the country. He speaks with Michel Martin about what families are experiencing in these communities.
