Despite a dramatic surge in the nation’s homeownership rates, academics and housing experts continue to document discriminatory lending practices in inner cities today. The long and infamous history of housing and lending discrimination in this country scarred the lives of millions offemilies seeking to realize the dreams and aspirations of all Americans to own a home. Unfortunately, such practices remain with us, in the form of urban redlining, mortgage steering, and other discriminatory actions. Not all families would choose to purchase a home in the city, but mortgage lending discrimination forces many urban home seekers to move to the suburbs to pursue the dream of homeownership. The result according to a recent Harvard University study is that inner-city residents of all income levels are less likely to own a home than suburban residents of similar incomes. This is not only unfair to those families denied the opportunity to live in the home of their choice, it also unfairly limits the ability of cities to maintain the homeowner base that is so vital to the economic and social stability of urban neighborhoods.

The compilation of the All-America roster was supervised by a panel of analysts working in large part with the historical records contained in the files of the Dr. Baker Football Information Service. The roster consists of only those players who were first-team selections on one or more of the All-America teams that were selected for the national audience and received nationwide circulation. Not included are the thousands of players who received mention on All-America second or third teams, nor the numerous others who were selected by newspapers or agencies with circulations that were not primarily national and with viewpoints, therefore, that were not normally nationwide in scope.
