description Without an understanding of the differential impacts of public policy on various class and ethnic groups, what is planned in the name of "the public" seldom provides significant benefits to minorities, particularly those with limited incomes. Race matters because ethnic groups are not randomly distributed geographically and because current planning strategies tend to exacerbate rather than alleviate exclusion. Two cases illustrate this point: 1. development of the Los Angeles regional rail system at an estimated cost of $183 billion, and 2. efforts by RLA (formerly Rebuild LA) to get major corporations to reinvest in South Central Los Angeles as a means of stimulating economic development. In both the transit case and the reinvestment case, there were possible scenarios in which the primary beneficiaries would be ethnic minorities, but these scenarios were not enacted.
