Sounds like the zoo has the wrong animals in the cages.

"Council member Martha Reeves" Is this the same Martha Reeves who sang with Martha and the Vandellas (Motown).

Yes, it is. But to her credit - she was just elected to the City Council during the Nov. election - so she hasn't had time to show us what she's really made of. (yet)

The symbolism is that Detroit is a black city


I thought they were chocolate...

"The symbolism is that Detroit is a black city and that we’re unable to govern ourselves.

How perceptive and how correct, Washington DC, Washington, DC School District, Oakland School District, Compton Jr.College, King/Drew Hospital, So. Africa, Zimbabwe, Sudan, on and on.

There are no success stories.

I've been to the Detroit Zoo as recently as the Sumemr of 2001. It was, and I presume is, a true regional treasure in an area that very badly needs family oriented venues and destinations.

I moved away from Detroit in December of 2001. I check the Detroit News and Free Press virtually every day at their websites.

This type of story is all too typical of the area.

Fools like Barabara Rose-Collins get elected time and again to positions of authority in the City. Gives the yahoos, suburban cynics and out-state haters all the cover they need to continue to write off the city. And the cycle continues.

These retards have been running a world class city into the crapper since the 60's and there are no signs of them ever slowing down.

I haven't regretted moving away from that dysfunctional icebox for 2 seconds.

So the circus will be running the zoo? LOL

I think it's more like the inmates are running the zoo

(sorry to mix metaphors)
