In 2022, Washington State passed SHB 1335, Concerning review and property owner notification of recorded documents with unlawful racial restrictions, which assigned Eastern Washington University and the University of Washington with the task of finding all of the racially restrictive property covenants in the state and informing owners about how to remove them. EWU is proud to be involved in correcting this historic wrong.
This collection consists of digital reproduction of racially restrictive covenants collected by the Eastern Washington University team.
