Are you familiar with the Eight Mile Wall??

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit_Wall

During the heyday of Devils Night. People were like why are these nigs burning up their own neighborhoods. Do a FOIA request oh look property taxes haven't been paid since 199- and the owners name is Carlson or Abrahamson and the zip codes are 48076 48009...

The outcry is because the new folks are moving into the neighborhoods were people stayed and kept up the property (owners and renters) and now magically there are city services and downtown is being cooperative.

I'll give you an example. http://michigancitizen.com/edible-architecture-growing-in-calimera-park/

For years the residents had been trying to buy this park from the city and they wouldnt sell it even going so far as giving out tickets for trespass when we tried to clean it up . As soon as these WHITE ecowarriors for justice asked about it BOOM all cooperative and open doors..Pisses me off
