Interesting bit about the city forcing residents to leave so they could build the MCS.
I trust that reparations to our Irish population is in order.
Really interesting. So Detroit's freeways weren't the first forced relocation for transit.
Hey keep down and keep that hate fact to yourself, you are ruining the narrative! Of course everyone just knows the only group forced out of their neighborhoods for the freeways were the black folks who lived in Paradise Valley! Someone hasn't read Origins of the Urban Crisis!
Except Irish [[re: white) were allowed to buy homes anywhere else in the city and weren't welcomed with anti-Irish signs and cross burnings. Considering this city was founded by Catholics and the city has been heavily Catholic since its founding, it wasn't hard for the Irish to assimilate. Meanwhile, blacks didn't have that same opportunity. But nice try.
Anyway, back to the archaeology and not the race-baiting which had nothing to do with anything...
Nobody said that blacks in Paradise Valley we're the only group of people displaced, because the city also demolished its [[small) China Town. It's just that the ENTIRE BLACK BOTTOM NEIGHBORHOOD WAS ELIMINATED. Corktown is still there.Hey keep down and keep that hate fact to yourself, you are ruining the narrative!

Actually, 2/3rds of Corktown was demolished in the late 1950's for the "Westside Industrial District"
