Episode #16: BHI - From Conversation To Action Featuring: Michael Brown

What does housing justice really look like in practice? In this episode of Around the Block, host Jasmyn Jefferson is joined by Michael Brown, Civic Architect of Civic Commons, for an in-depth conversation about the Black Home Initiative (BHI) and the regional effort to expand Black homeownership across the Puget Sound. Michael shares the origins of BHI, the data behind the racial wealth gap, and the historical policies that created today’s housing disparities. They discuss why BHI was intentionally built as a collaborative network, how cross-sector partnerships are reshaping access to homeownership, and what real progress looks like when systems change, not just programs. Topics covered include: • The long-term impacts of redlining and racially restrictive covenants • Why homeownership is central to generational wealth • How the Black Home Initiative works across public, private, and community sectors • The Covenant Homeownership Act and measurable outcomes to date • Why targeted equity efforts strengthen housing systems for everyone Learn more about the Black Home Initiative here: https://www.homeownership-wa.org/bhi/ Special thanks to Sterling Inspection Group, our 2025 podcast room sponsor
