Young Voices, We Are Listening
Day One, Act I: HOPE
In 1967, when the ruling class left Detroit for dead and 61% of the population would slowly disappear, creating the most segregated region in the whole wide world, bested only by South Africa’s Apartheid. It was not just the bodies and the blight, but when White Detroit departed, they took the money and even the keys for good measure. And all the while, it was the Baby Boomer Generation left in charge. So when America’s 4th largest city fell, the Boomers stood back and watched, then blamed Generation X.
