Abstract: Municipalities create a local political geography that can institutionalize subordinate positions for minority groups. Most importantly, local governments determine which areas are incorporated into a municipality through annexation and which are excluded. Through these powers, local governments can diminish or deny minority political standing in local affairs, limit access to public services, and reduce the value of minority property. The boundaries are a component of racial residential segregation. Racially disparate application of local governments' power to shape local political geography creates barriers to equality that are difficult to discern on the ground, but which can be made visible by the mapping of spatial data. This study presents four cases where governmental decisions concerning a municipal boundary have institutionalized racial inequality, which is documented with maps created from public GIS data and other public records (e.g., City Council meeting minutes) as well as legal documents. This pattern of systematic exclusion of minority neighborhoods is receiving attention in the legal community, but studies in the social sciences have been limited. [Key words: segregation, municipal boundaries, planning, GIS.]

Abstract: In 2005, Hurricane Katrina's devastation of the City of New Orleans and other Gulf Coast communities refocused the nation's attention on the relationship between race and poverty in America. The people most adversely affected by this catastrophic event were overwhelmingly black, and overwhelmingly poor. A common reaction to the media's dramatic images of disaster victims in New Orleans was: "I didn't think the problem of race and poverty was still with us." As this article shows, the attention to poverty and race brought about by Katrina is yet another phase in the race/poverty discourse in America, which has shifted sharply several times over the past 50 years. Johnson and Parnell show how the face of poverty in the United States has changed over the past 40 years in response to anti-poverty policies and structural changes in the economy.
- Rural poverty declined while urban poverty grew.
- Poverty among the elderly and children declined while poverty among working-age adults increased sharply. Today, the working poor account for a higher proportion of Americans in poverty than the jobless poor.
- Poverty increased in female-headed, single-parent households as the number and proportion of these families grew, especially among African Americans.
Hurricane Katrina served as a vivid reminder that poverty remains a substantial problem in America.
