Newly confirmed as Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Secretary, Marcia Fudge is the first African American woman to serve in the post. She’s tasked with addressing the nation’s myriad housing challenges – from homelessness to homeownership – that are of urgent concern to communities of color. The pandemic has underscored the need for safe and stable housing, while homeownership is the surest pathway to wealth creation and retirement security for American families. National Urban League President Marc Morial and Secretary Fudge engage in a candid, far-ranging Fireside Chat about the administration’s plans to combat homelessness, end housing discrimination, and lower barriers to homeownership ownership for African Americans.
