  • Testimony of Fred Freiberg, Executive Director, Fair Housing Justice Center (FHJC) Hearing of the New York City Council Committe
    Testimony of Fred Freiberg, Executive Director, Fair Housing Justice Center (FHJC) Hearing of the New York City Council Committee on Housing & Buildings November 8, 2017 – 10:00 a.m. The Fair Housing Justice Center (FHJC), a regional civil rights organization based in New York City, strongly supports passage of the Fair Residential Cooperative Disclosure Law (Intro 1458). In our view, this law will bring greater fairness, accountability, and transparency to a process that has, for too long, been cloaked in secrecy. The passage of laws that prohibit housing discrimination has resulted in some significant changes in housing market practices. The very “visible” walls that once characterized most housing discrimination still exist, but are far less common (e.g., slammed doors, blatant discriminatory comments, overt denials, etc.). Today, the bulk of discriminatory housing practices are more subtle and difficult to detect. More often it is the “invisible” walls that prevent people from obtaining available housing (e.g. selective marketing, misrepresentations about availabilities, policies that have a disparate impact, etc.). The problem with these invisible walls is that they are rarely detected by ordinary consumers and the practices are difficult to document. Consequently, few complaints are filed and enforcement action is rarely taken….so the discrimination continues. The invisibility of this housing discrimination ensures its sustainability. The late civil rights leader James Farmer, said it another way, “Institutional practices, it seems, perpetuate themselves by their invisibility.” Our organization has found that some of these “invisible” walls can be documented and eliminated through testing investigations conducted at the pre-application or pre-purchase stage of a housing transaction.
