Uploaded on Jul 30, 2007

Made by the city of Detroit, this film attempted to bid for The Olympic Games in the late 1960s. This film put the best spotlight possible on the city shortly before it's decline in the 1970s.

    I would not blame it on the drug farmers alone, I believe it was the dealers and sellers and especially the buyers as well. I would blame the 'Crack', during the 1970s till the early 1990's really ruined the city.

    Strange to see a video of Detroit and see white people, dining, enjoying the theatre and a booming metropolis. Look at it now. LOL

    A white man with no money can do just as much as a black man with no money. Fuck all. Race isnt the issue, lack of money is.
