Detroit as a place to visit, but not to live, clearly marked racial boundaries, city government corruption, economic overdependence on the Big 3. There was so little attention on those trying to restore their society, instead focusing on the woe-is-me folks. Detroit was a city of abandoned buildings, structures left devastated by the riots more than 10 years earlier still unrepaired, and dinner table anecdotes about random violence both in the inner city and suburbs.
