Detroit was once the symbol of America's industrial power; the birthplace of Ford, the assembly line and the home of GM. But now it feels more like a ghost town littered with abandoned buildings.
In 1913 Detroit was booming but when the Great Depression hit, this abruptly ended. Between 2006 and 2008 four of GM's plants in Michigan closed, and more than 15,000 are homeless in the city. "There's no work in Michigan... all you see is vacant houses" explains one homeless resident. As industries move to areas with cheaper labour, former assembly line workers and buildings are left useless.

I last visited Detroit back in 1999 to attend a family member's funeral. The city has collapsed even further. I can't talk to much I'm originally from Baltimore. 🇺🇸✌🙁 Baltimore is the Heroine Capital💉💊. My dad is an addict. I studied and got the hell out.

ray bon honestly the city needs to be made smaller. People dont' move to cities with little jobs. The rust belt population has been declining. People want to live in warmer weather and will more jobs so they move down South. Furthermore, people don't move in droves to an area with bad schools. You would have to be attractive to industries for new jobs and I don't see that happening. I think Detroit will be largely unoccupied. Its sad but its the truth.

@raybon7939 8 жыл бұрын

there's no arguing the warmer weather.but 5year rental restrictions. Would be tough to pass up no matter what the weather. No without a base its hard. You nerd 10 or 15 5000 employees size, companies to move there. Then it can get going.

I went to a trade school there in the 70s got a job and got laid off . I time in the corps and retired .I did more govt time with city govt in another state and retired again .Getting ready more activity . I am giving credit to growing up in a place like Detroit . Because people can get depressed and do drugs and jump off bridges or whatever or take the stress and convert to a good flow of energy . Always different ways to handle a situation rather than blame people .That place put a fire under me that won't die out and I credit growing up there . I thank Detroit for the fuel !

White people are to blame. Poor black people were banned from the suburbs and forced to move to the city which at the time was more expensive, making it almost impossible to afford living, then they raised the rent, cost of living etc. So what anybody starving, with children, making less then $5 an hour would do is turn to robbing people for money to afford diapers for their kids. So White people are to blame for alot of what the city has become. This is a common denominator in alot of dangerous places because white people forced minorities into the spot they're in. And now ignorant White people that want to defend the actions of their people say stupid shit like what you guys have on the internet instead of accepting the facts.

Welfare lead to fatherless homes because the government purposely put into the law that Black women. couldn't get help if a man was in the house but at the same time deny BM work. Government has caused fatherless homes locking all the BM up. But y'all think a man has to live with the mother and child. That's that propaganda. Detroit was ranked #1 or close to it in home ownership until the banks, mortgage companies (white ppl) targeted Black communities with their foreclosure scam. Destroying the market and ownership therefore neighborhoods. Crime is a symptom of a problem. Education State of Michigan destroyed Detroit public schools and the ruled in court that Detroit's children don't have a constitional right to learn how to read and write. No jobs not even summer programs. Poisoning of food and water disabling ppl. Defunding of Public services and programs. Corporatiobs stole community tax dollars are built private institutions and refuse to give the community anything or hire Detroiters. Racist policing, laws, practices, making young ppl felons and unable to work. Redlined jobs, business, income, training, auto insurance opportunities. Alcohol Board of Commission allows a 2 liquor stores on every block. Etc. And every time you open a book, cut on the TV, get on the internet, see a movie, listen to radio, ppl are saying and doing things to let you know that they wished you were dead. Everytime you they turn around there is a non Black person, a 100 non Black ppl, thousands of non Black ppl, millions telling you how disgusting, stupid, weak, dirty, useless you are. What did you think they would behave like. White ppl are ridiculous.

Just because the automotive industries are booming in the South and other states doesn't mean they're the reason for Detroit's demise. The automotive industries were Michigan's #1 money makers, and as soon as they left, the entirety of Detroit started to fall apart. It would be like taking away agriculture from the South. In the South, and in many other states, however, automotive industries aren't #1, even though they're booming and doing very well. So when your #1 leaves you, the only thing you could do is watch everything fall apart. Besides, southern states are still poor. compared to others.

Held back by many, even artists here they sell out first chance they get to ugly powers that control.. massive controls at play here in the wasteland.. Much corruption.. My first film about Detroit and metro Detroit is Autumn's Atonement from 1992 and also includes the Michigan Avenue Church sign you filmed.. So far it has been blocked on youtube due to music i used, it is also a prolonged music video taking the view of Doestovesky that the landscape reflects the soul of the times and people.. also began taking care of a 100yr old building on the Detroit/Hamtramck border in 2009 during the heart of the depression.. Several film makers from out of state and country have approached and worked w me over the years like Mark Tierney, Michael Merto, Nutopia films in London.. They all sold out, none of them dealt with the issues i tried to present nor did they explore them... Great work with your film!

Q. Why doesn't someone buy up the abandoned plants and put them to use? A. They are thoroughly obsolete in terms of present day technology. Q. Why doesn't someone build new plants? A. Because most Detroiters are too poorly educated to contribute to modern manufacturing methods. Q. Why don't the unemployed leave Detroit for greener pastures? A. Because they rightly predict that they are pretty much unemployable anywhere in the USA. Since 1950, the population of Detroit has declined by 1.2M or 65%. Almost no one remaining in Detroit has something to contribute to manufacturing. Note that there is plenty of manufacturing still going on in the suburbs, starting with Ford in Dearborn. This video gives no hint of the prosperity and diversity of the Detroit suburbs, and of the strength of Ford. It also gives no hint that there are other Rust Belt disasters: Baltimore MD, Flint MI, Buffalo NY, Cleveland OH, Youngstown OH, Gary IN, East St. Louis, Camden NJ.

You move jobs out these cities for cheaper pay this is what going to happen. Its neither blacks or whites fault. Through out history Detroit has had a crime problem. I mean one of the most notorious original gangs were from Detroit the Purple gang they even worked for Al'capone. So lets not act like blacks turned Detroit to a war zone. Because Detroit was never perfect from the beginning. I mean seriously Detroit had one of the worst race riots in American history over false roomers. Detroit has always had corrupted politic leaders. Shit until the 70s Detroit has always been divided as well. No unity, no jobs, politic leaders who don't give 2 shits bout the city and this what you get. Welcome to Detroit. It sucks to because Detroit really isn't as bad as the media makes it seems. Detroit during thanksgiving-New years is awesome specially if your a football or hockey fan. Detroit celebrates its new years with Canada. If you love cars right now is the time to be in Detroit for the car show. Detroiters are prideful people and tough. If your not from here don't judge the city.

The population of the City of Detroit fell from 1.8 million in 1950 to 673,000 in 2017. The population of the Detroit metropolitan area rose from 3 million in 1950 to 6 million in 2017. While the city collapsed and turned into a "failed state", the broader metro area has thrived and its economy has boomed. The focus is always on the city, though. If globalization destroyed the city, then it should have destroyed the metro area as well - but it didn't. The reasons why the city failed and the suburbs didn't are straightforward, but uncomfortable for documentary narrators and other analysts on the left, and they always avoid coming to grips with them and stick to the narratives that make them feel morally comfortable. If you want to watch good documentaries on Detroit, see the ones by Al Profit. Much, much better than this shallow rag. Al doesn't fully come to grips with the consequences of Coleman Young and Kwame Kilpatrick. But he is honest about a lot of things, and he really does his homework.

That's why being paid less than what you need to live is illegal in my country. During the aftermath of the 1. WW companies used to make "auctions" for jobs. There was one job avaivable for about 20 unemployed people, so the general procedure was to let the candidates bid for what wage they would do that kind of work. The guy who wanted to do it for the least amount of wage got the job. Unemployment rates were so high that people had pretty much the same mentality like your dad. They had to work 80 hours a week for half a loaf of bread as a payment, but at least they got something at all. The problem with this is that if people have no money, they can't spend it on anything, which means that other companies relying on that spending capacity will die as well, which in turn means that those people working there lose their jobs and join the crowd of people with no money, which again means that more companies have to end their business. It's an endless downwards spiral and the nation itself suffers from the decreasing number of companies and employees that are actually paying taxes, and less taxes mean less development. That's why this form of hardcore capitalism is just poison for a community. It's insane that the U.S. still let that happen. In my country the poorest people are more like lower middle class in America.

Dam what a shame! All that history and it will be gone. I live in Tampa bay. Fl and everything here is so expensive. You do get payed good down here but it does cost a lot to live comfortably. I see so much potential in all the buildings. Data centers and apartments. Even the company I work for had been to Detroit looking to set up shop there but the city couldn’t reach a deal on taxes I think. And development programs and something else. I hope it works out for them all the labor you need is in Detroit just waiting for work and down here you can’t find people to work. But we do ac work and electric and everything else just not homes we do big projects that can last over a year. We could use any one of them guys down here given the chance I think a lot would change for the better. I see so much potential there I hope someone takes the first step and others follow best of luck to you Detroit 💯💯💯💯😎✌️

Detroit had very aggressive school integration plans. Busing was used extensively and Whites resisted but also moved out in droves. The resent of busing was so intense that some buses in Pontiac area were bombed. Another factor was a series of Black riots. The 1967 riot was so bad the police and National guard were insufficient and both the 82 and 101st Army Airborne divisions had to be sent in. The riot was because the police closed an unlicensed bar. The riot destroyed much of the city. During the 1970s another huge riot broke out when a white bartender accosted 3 Black youths breaking into his car. He claimed that he fired on them when they advanced on him. The Blacks rioted. Additional riots ensued during the 1980s and 1990s following sports victories The riots and the forced busing led to an almost complete abandonment of Detroit by Whites. The city came to be a city of. Blacks ruled by Blacks. It almost disintegrated and is bankrupt dependent on state and federal bailouts.

Thank these extreme liberal federal judges for ordering integration of Detroit public schools. If they would have left things alone Detroit wouldnt have fallen as disastrously as it did during the 70s. But these do gooder federal judges listening and pandering to these minority cry babies are the final nail in Detroit's coffin.

Blacks were not allowed to move to the suburbs: I am old enough to know that is not true. Blacks just did not have the money. Detroit at that time had no racial land discrimination in the suburbs. There were blacks in the suburbs just not many.

This has nothing to do with the democrats you dumb brainwashed fuck. Corporate greed was the problem. Corporations that have more money than they can handle, easily enough to pay livable wages and still make ludicrous amounts of money, refuse to even do that, and cheap out on labor instead thus going elsewhere. And you know who gets down on their knees to suck corporations off? Republicans. They'll take your money, give it to billionaires while telling you everythings fine. You're being conned and you're too fucking dumb to realize it.

Haiti is a terrible example. Read up on ya history bub. Haiti is an example of when one rapes a country of its resources until it virtually has nothing and then "gives it back" but says you still got to pay us in taxes. Basically a property tax. Then you have the Dominican Republic on the same exact island that's only a few handouts away from being like Haiti refusing to help uplift their neighbor.
