Longstanding co-ownership challenges as well as outside pressures inclusive of gentrification contribute to today's picture of Black land loss.

Mary Henderson, a senior staff attorney at the Land Loss Prevention Project, a nonprofit based in North Carolina, explores the historical context of land loss; the particular vulnerabilities of African American land, focusing in particular on the challenges presented by heir property; some of the tools and methodologies the organization uses to assist clients and communities; and changes in the legal approaches to heir property.
