In the 1960s, Mae Wiggins and her friend Maxine Brown applied for housing at the Wilshire Apartments in the Jamaica Estates neighborhood of Queens, New York. There was just one hitch: Mae, pictured here, and Maxine were black. They were both told that there were no vacancies — which turned out to be untrue. “We were professional people with good credit ratings; no reason to be denied apartments,” Mae recalled. When the 2 women applied, it was late 1963 — just months before President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the landmark Civil Rights Act — and the tall, mustachioed Fred C. Trump was approaching the apex of his building career. He was also grooming his heir: his son @ドナルド・トランプ, then 17. “We knew there was prejudice in renting,” Mae recalled. “It was rampant in New York. It made me feel really bad, and I wanted to do something to right the wrong.” @justingellerson photographed Mae in the backyard of her Virginia Beach home.
