Fifty years ago, civil rights reached a turning point when President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Fair Housing Act into law on April 11, 1968, exactly one week after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Written by an attorney in 5-7-5 syllabic form with original full-color drawings, charts, and more, Fair Housing Haiku explains how the law protects you against discrimination when enjoying your home or searching for a new one.
