I suppose this means these realtors are unwittingly blaming the crimes on blacks. Actual racism will have its way, and usually by way of the actions and words of liberals.

Here is how I read it.

Areas with higher crime (regardless of their ethnic makeup) will have their homes devalued because of this tool.

Common sense will tell you that homes values in higher crime areas will decrease compared to the market, because most people will not want to be a home there. There is a word in economics called “demand”. Heh.

But if you insert woke activism into the mix, and you’ve decided that it’s minority areas that are showing up as higher crime, then you want to protect their home values artificially.
