Hmmm... Detroit is about 85% black and has been run by blacks for decades.

Racism! When you can't and won't take responsibility for what you do.

It’s the perception of racism which is the problem, not racism itself. Adopting a victimhood mentality does no one any good, just stirs up a lot of anger.

Exactly.....this tripe is about as honest as is the typical Democrat argument against making a voter prove who he/she is.

The audacity (to borrow Obama’s word) is astounding, really. I’d no more give credence to any of this childish rhetoric than I would to a two-year old with a poopy diaper on a sugar high.

Racism?

BULL. SH*T.

“Racism” has become the catch word for every half-baked character who views Black criminality, Black failures at education, Black failures at achievement, Black failures at ambition, Black failures in business, Black failures in careers, and seeks to excuse sub-standard Black performance by fobbing it all off on someone else.

Society is NOT to blame for your shortcomings, you weak-minded parasites!

Projection. Racists see racism everywhere.

Proving once again that blacks are their own worst enemy.

Let me see if I got this straight...

Blacks have had pretty much unhindered control of Detroit since Coleman Young was elected some time in the 1970s (’74 maybe?) and Detroit’s problems are “racist?”

O.K. That works for me but not the way the “Roundtable Equity Action Summit” thinks...

*fail*

“According to attendees, the event drew several hundred people, though the number had dwindled to less than 75 by the time the event concluded at 4:30 p.m.”

***

Could it be that most of the attendees became tired of listening to the same old baloney?

Please cite one city or nation run by Blacks that functions well.

Motown might follow in the shoes of Michael Jackson, administer cyproterone acetate at government schools and turn the boys into castrati. There would be an influx of wealth into Detroit from the music and dance, and most of their crime problems would be solved in one generation.

“Patrick says the city devotes an uneven amount of its resources, such as policing, in areas like Midtown in an effort to support gentrification.

Meanwhile, she said, they are over-policing the neighborhoods and treating longtime residents like they are the criminals. “

That sounds like a complete contradiction to me.

Aside from a few on the city council, I don't really see much racism in this situation. The democrats are starting to lose the city and are becoming desperate.

When blacks stop blaming whitey and take a good hard look in the mirror, they will solve their issues.....

Now is a good time to show the picture of the buildings in Europe 2000 years ago and the straw huts in Africa now.

Whitey is to blame for all of blacks problems. Yeah, it has been that way since the beginning of time.

Blacks took the keys to the city of Detroit. What have they done with it?

“I think racism is a mechanism to create division because their whole goal is to get us to draw a line in the sand along race, along religion, along sexual identity,”
Um, sounds familiar for the first black president voter pep talk topics ah divisiveness tool box use.

Racism is a fig leaf to cover culture.

It was the corrupt, inept and racist black culture that destroyed DEEtroit.
