Together for change.
We thank the Just Deeds Coalition founding members.
The Minnesota Association of City Attorneys is an organization for attorneys representing cities in the State of Minnesota, with a focus on education and networking to better serve their municipal clients.

The Mapping Prejudice Project is based at the University of Minnesota Libraries. The project mobilizes people from all ages and backgrounds to map racial covenants. The resulting digital maps show how racial restrictions were embedded in the built environment. This work is meant to change our collective understanding of the past and lay the groundwork for a more equitable future.
Golden Valley is a West Metro suburb of Minneapolis of 22,000 residents and 1,600 racially restrictive covenants. The City of Golden Valley started the Just Deeds Project in 2019 through its Human Rights Commission. The City of Golden Valley commits to the mission of Just Deeds by educating homeowners about the lasting impacts of racially restrictive covenants and connecting residents to free services to discharge discriminatory covenants. The spirit of the Just Deeds mission permeates the City’s work through ongoing examination of City policies, practices and regulations to eliminate inequality.
We greatly appreciate our partners.
