I had to lookup what a shotgun house was after reading it in another post. I found the answer. They are low income urban housing from the late 1800's and early 1900's dirty south USA.
Aka a Nig-shack.

The author of this article is a fucking idiot Leftist faggot with an agenda to try and make it look like Niggers were singled out for houses like this. It's complete bullshit. Very narrow lots, ranging from 25-50'x~125' were normal city lots all over the US for a long time, not just in the south. On a lot narrower than 50', your options are limited, and - particularly before bathrooms were a thing- making the house so that there were just a series of interconnected rooms with no space wasted to hallway was the norm for smaller homes. Has NOTHING to do with Whitey "Keeping the Nigras Down".
