My take on what went down after the Urban Rebellion of 1967?
Some got payed, everybody else got played, some cheap and close...
The idea was to undermine equality between the white elites, the mostly nonwhite wannabes...
The reality, no area which doesn't diversity, allows outsiders to determine their destiny, etc.
I. e., be it a one time mainstay of auto manufacturing and/or entertainment, such won't be a real motivation, for white wannabes etc. to repopulate Detroit...
Yeah, lots of whites, some former residents, some not, flock to the downtown area casinos and sports stadiums, but then most en masse just return to their own suburban communities, etc.
Hence, at best, the white governor's takeover is less a makeover, more a face lift...
And, so goes Detroit, also goes Michigan...
FYI
