The Civil Rights Act (CRA) of 1968 was referred to by two other names. One, the Housing Rights Act of 1968 and the second, the Fair Housing Act. Actually, Title VIII of the CRA of 1968 contains the provisions for what is commonly referred to as the Fair Housing Act. For a brief survey of the history of the Fair Housing Act, see "Housing" From the U.S. Department of Justice.

Fair housing encompasses more than the Title VIII of the CRA of 1968, so I can't see merging the two articles. Caerwine Caerwhine 01:01, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I can see the FHA being a part of "Fair Housing." After all, it's an important component, and legal crystalization, of the concept. Saltyseaweed 00:18, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
