Reading many of the comments attached to youtube previews, the common theme is that this is the last thing we need right now for race relations in this country. I understand what they're saying, on the other hand it's the old argument about choosing to ignore past history. While the movie may provide a better understanding of Detroit's racial problems, I can't think that it will help its image.
