Where were you during the 1967 Detroit Riot?

[Cass1966]

Whatever the problems were that the black folks had with the city or the police on that night in July of 1967 were, it’s nothing compared to the screwing they got everyday over the next over forty years during the Coleman Young, Archer, and Kwame Kilpatrick administrations. You can try to revise history, lie to yourself, or just go into denial, but the truth is the truth. We should all look back on the Mayor Cavanagh years as “the good old days”.

Hmmmn, usually Dennis Archer is exempted from the 'list'... He certainly tried to the right thing it can be argued as least so as to not be cannonized with the likes of Kilpatrick et al. Hah. What a failed attempt after all... Dennie.....
