How Trump Got His Start, and Was First Accused of Bias
By JONATHAN MAHLER and STEVE EDER
As Donald J. Trump assumed an increasing role in his father’s business, the real estate company’s practice of turning away potential black tenants was painstakingly documented.
An investigation by The New York Times uncovered a long history of racial bias at his family’s properties, in New York and beyond.
Then and now, Mr. Trump has steadfastly denied any awareness of any discrimination at Trump properties. While Mr. Trump declined to be interviewed for this article, his general counsel, Alan Garten, said in a statement that there was “no merit to the allegations.”
Donald Trump said he had first heard about the lawsuit, which was filed in the fall of 1973, on his car radio.
The government had charged him, his father and their company, Trump Management Inc., with violating the Fair Housing Act.
After nearly two years of legal wrangling, the Trumps gave up and signed a consent decree.
