Susan Evans Grove: Stealing Home
This piece is part of a series entitled ‘America’s Favorite Pastime’ which uses baseball as a metaphor for the ills in America. This piece is called ‘Stealing Home’ and echoes the redlining maps that were created In 1935 when the Federal Home Loan Bank Board asked Home Owners’ Loan Corporation to look at 239 cities and create ‘residential security maps’ to indicate the level of risk for real-estate investments. The maps show the newest areas (considered desirable for lending purposes) outlined in green and known as ‘Type A’. These were typically affluent suburbs on the outskirts of cities. ‘Type B’ neighborhoods, outlined in blue, were considered ‘Still Desirable’, whereas older ‘Type C’ were labeled ‘Declining’ and outlined in yellow. ‘Type D’ neighborhoods were outlined in red and were considered the riskiest for mortgage loans.
‘Stealing Home’ is made from the leathers of found baseballs, sewn together with embroidery thread using the colors of the redlining maps.
