For decades before World War II, New York's tenants had organized to secure renters' rights. After the war, tenant activists raised the stakes by challenging the newly-dominant ideal of homeownership in racially segregated suburbs. They insisted that renters as well as owners had rights to stable, well-maintained homes, and they proposed that racially diverse urban communities held a right to remain in place. Further, the activists asserted that women could participate fully in the political arenas where these matters were decided. This work shows that New York City's tenant movement made a significant claim to citizenship rights that came to accrue, both ideologically and legally, to homeownership in postwar America. 410 0$aWomen in American History 606 $aMinorities$xHousing$zNew York (State)$zNew York$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aHousing$zNew York (State)$zNew York$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMinorities$zNew York (State)$zNew York$xSocial conditions 606 $aLandlord and tenant$zNew York (State)$zNew York$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMinorities$xHousing$xHistory 615 0$aHousing$xHistory 615 0$aMinorities$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aLandlord and tenant$xHistory 676 $a333.33/8 700 $aGold$b Roberta$0963509 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465010403321 996 $aWhen tenants claimed the city$92184548 997 $aUNINA
