With the beginning of systemic impacts coming into effect during the new deal as Franklin D. Roosevelt worked to rebuild the nation after the great depression, city governments, and local elites have either used, or battled federal policies to determine who had access to land ownership, who participated in wealth creation and how neighborhoods developed. Land of Opportunity takes a look through the 20th century from a current day narrative-driven perspective on the Santa Fe neighborhood. We will explore the beginnings of the neighborhood, the racially restricted covenant it entered, Dr. Miller's fight through the courts in order to purchase and move into the neighborhood, and current residents recollections of this transforming community.
