I'm over here in Canton like :lupe: cuz I don't know if I'm excited or afraid of this.

Detroit broke as fukk, but black interests need to stay key. I'm not tryna see Detroit turn into Hipster Hockeytown from Southwest to Warrendale to 8 Mile :snoop:
I live in midtown... it's already happened here.

I think part of the problem is that all the blacks who thought they were doing something moved to Canton, Southfield, East subs, etc.

The best areas are at the core city and now CAC are gonna eat good.

Oh believe me, that's going to happen regardless of what color your mayor is. One man can't stop a demographic sea change.

So long as Detroit remains a metro area with dirt-cheap housing, broke college grads will flock in droves.

Them college grads not moving to the city like that. They got a few Lil pockets of the city but they not moving into these fukked up hoods.

name one that was good. :wtf:

I'm sorry but I just can't defend Detroit. that was a failure and they are to blame, they should have used the time to floss black excellence and instead they turned to corruption, fukk that. They should be shunned by the community.
name a white controlled city that isn't corrupt. The surrounding cities have done nothing different.... but were shytted on less because they had white power structures, history, and support behind them.



at the same time..... like these nikkas in here are saying........... The older generation failed horribly. Luckily its sooooo many freakin black people, and a good amount of educated black people that they really can't completely get rid of us. We see what's going on more than our fukk ass parents and grandparents did.

and thats they how making sure the people who can do something will never come back

10 years ago....you was not moving to Southfield unless you had a couple dollars

now all you need is two paychecks and you gotta 1-2 bedroom in the burbs :snoop:

That chit not new people been running to the suburbs for years like that. Section 8 was always easier to get out there and those townhouse complexes was nicer than renting a house In detroit for the same price.

your point doesn't really make sense unless you actually believe that blacks have every 'owned' Detroit. There is a reason y every black mayor was fukked w so hard.... not all were over the top corrupt.

:lolbron: but on a serious note...why?

I didn't like his answers regarding not working with the emergency manager/the state.Nobody wants to have an EM here but to say you're not gonna work with him at all on some :pacspit: shyt rubbed me the wrong way,that's not how u get shyt done.Also Duggan's experience with the DMC leading them out of bankruptcy was the trump card.I'd like to have a mayor with that kind of experience leading Detroit out of it's bankruptcy. Don't think the city needs a life long cop leading them right now (even through crime is fukked up).

word.

We are only 1 of two black families on my street... i live in midtown.. nothing but smart crakkers who fixed up abandoned homes... or young hipsters who feel it's cool to live in Detroit now.

entire apartment buildings have gotten 60 notices to move out........ and replaced by foreign asian and local white college students.

My homegirl called the police for something minor 1 day--- 3 cars showed up in under 7 min. :upsetfavre:


lol, shyts different. They gonna leave the eastside alone only so that area and the wack ass cheap subs can warehouse all the people who don't fit in.

in the areas that are marked for renovation this doesn't happen anymore.

1 property i have.. used to be car stolen, maybe robbed... then people take all the pipes n shyt out of the house. Now heavy cameras in the trees n lights n shyt... police patrol.

the idea is to attract businesses and working professionals.
