{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"The Covenant Conspiracy","description":"In 1945, a reverend, a realtor, a science teacher, and a white woman in a low-cut dress conspired to help a St. Louis couple buy a house. The couple had steady jobs, a down payment, and six children who needed a safe home. What they didn't have was permission — at least not according to a clause buried in the property's deed. Their attempt to move in triggered outrage from neighbors, a lawsuit, and a legal battle that climbed all the way to the United States Supreme Court, resulting in the landmark 1948 ruling in Shelley v. Kraemer.\n\nCrimes of the Centuries (https://www.centuriespod.com/) is a podcast from Grab Bag Collab (https://www.patreon.com/grabbagcollab) exploring forgotten crimes from times past that made a mark and helped change history.
