Learning Goal: I’m working on a sociology question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
First: watch the video and type 2-3 pages of notes on the video. Can be about anything you find useful.
Second: After finishing the documentary, answer these 5 questions below.
- The documentary goes into detail about how the Housing Act of 1949 played out in St Louis. Imagine you decide to explain to someone how Pruitt-Igoe is linked to ALL THREE of the Housing Act titles. First, and in your own words, tell me about Title I of the Housing Act of 1949. Then, tell me an example of how you see Title I playing out in St Louis.

- The dominant narrative in the United States is that public housing is and has always been a failure, and will always be destined to be a failure. The video counters this, and points to very specific reasons for why the Pruitt-Igoe development (and others like it) failed. Identify and explain two of these reasons.
- Much of the movie is told by former residents. What stories of life in Pruitt-Igoe are most instructive about public housing?
