Abstract

42 U.S.C. § 1982-The United States Supreme Court has held that the official closing of a public street, resulting in a benefit for the white residents of that street and an inconvenience disparately impacting black residents of a neighboring community, is neither a badge of slavery prohibited by the thirteenth amendment nor an impairment of property interests protected by 42 U.S.C. § 1982.

City of Memphis v. Greene, 101 S. Ct. 1584 (1981).
