It's called the Homeownership Down Payment Program and it provides a
$25,000 forgivable loan only to buyers who are black, indigenous or people
of color who are buying a permanently affordable home through the Champlain
Housing Trust or its partner agencies across the state.

----------------------
There are plenty of low income white people who could use a leg up to help
buy a home but they're shit out of luck in Vermont, where they'll be told
they have the wrong skin color to access that benefit.
I wonder how they'll treat someone who is half-white and half-black? Maybe
it goes by looks. If you look black enough, like Obama, you get the loan.
If your white parent's genes came through, then no loan for you.
"Indigenous" isn’' even a real thing. How do you claim that status?
Shouldn't anybody who wants it just be able to say they are?
Yep. I'm indigenous. I was born in Kentucky and I'm not from anywhere else.
And while you might say, yes, but your forebears aren't from North
America... well, that applies to the people who are considered
"indigenous", too. No flavor of human being is actually indigenous to North
America. We all originally came from somewhere else.
But much like 'African-American', any white people who actually qualify
under their politically correct jargon will be told "that's not what we
mean".
