Hamtramck demographics

[DetroitPole]

Scott Klein [[said councilperson who happened to be gay) seemed, by all accounts, to be a good person and hardworking councilman and Hamtramck citizen.

Yet they him out and elect this guy instead, who doesn't even live in Hamtramck.

This charmer is still an honorable councilperson, in fact.

Hmm. Wonder why that is. Same old politics in this area - he's the right ethnicity and the right religion, and, at least outwardly straight. Doesn't matter that he's a piece of shit.

Hamtramck isn't the rosy place where everybody shits rainbows that Lowell makes it out to be. Very likable place, to be sure, but especially the politics are hideous. The Bangladeshi councilpeople boycott the local newspaper, the Review, because it is, quote, "un-Islamic"
Whatever the fuck that means.

The Council is currently half Bangladeshi Muslim and half European-descent Christian. One can paint it as diversity, but it seems more like a house divided.
