      Charlie thanks for your comment, sir I am by no means a CZcams activists, I tried to do my part within my community, I Mentor young teens, I volunteer my time as well at the Juvenile Detention Center as much as I can.. I'm involved in a couple organizations geared toward helping young black fathers and young black mothers.. perhaps I took your words out of context but what I meant by a ridiculous comment, you implied because these kids could not articulate themselves with simple English they had no potential. it's an unfortunate situation I agree and I get that however everyone has potential to do better if they're aware that the resources are available. I was once like these kids, we become a product of our environment which means it's almost impossible to understand the grass is greener on the other side. As a kid my biggest aspiration in life was to sell drugs or pimp women in hindsight I felt that way obviously because that was the social Norm at the time. it wasn't until I had the opportunity to move to Alaska when I began to realize the grass is greener on the other side and the things I was exposed to as a child we're not right. again I appreciate the comment sir I didn't mean any disrespect but thank you for responding in a positive manner. Lastly it's easy for us to sit back and judge these kids without showing any type of empathy, it's difficult for people who haven't walked in their shoes to understand or even grasp the concept of hood living, it's not as simple as one would think to just get up get your life together and stop with the ignorant mentality

    • @RADIUMGLASS
      @RADIUMGLASS Před 5 lety +39

      The last Republican mayor was Louis Miriani. Some historians blame Albert Cobo for the start of the decline, he did not support the black community at all and put I-75 right through their neighborhood. When Coleman Young took office in 1974, white flight was at full throttle, the riots in 1967 started it., through whites started leaving for the suburbs in the 50's, 1967 was the first nail in the coffin. I had relatives that wanted to buy a house across from Palmer Woods and the house was $40,000 in 1974 dollars. By 1984 it had all changed. Myself I believe Coleman Young was the final nail in the coffin. Whites left, they moved their business and families to the burbs in mass numbers when Young got in.

      The Feds spent some time trying to nail Young. City was just too corrupt under his reign. Taking him down wouldn't have mattered. Young, Gil Hill and all the top cops were on the take for the crack gangs in the 80's.
      Truth be told Detroit was dying a slow death beginning in the early to mid 50's. The riots in '67 were just the scapegoat for all the failed policies of Cavanagh.

    I grew up on the east side of Detroit and it hurts my heart to see how terrible things are. I hate to hear negative comments by people who have never lived there. I also see how the people of the city was enticed to the suburbs and as they are revitalizing the downtown area, the people almost can't afford to come back. Not to mention the fact that the areas that are being revitalized are by people who have possibly never even been to the city. But I appreciate your videos and I would love more commentary on they streets you're filming!

    Dropped dad a voicemail one Sunday afternoon letting him know I was going to go for a drive to see gramma and grandpas old house. By the time I got there dad was blowing up my phone telling me to stay the fuck out of that neighborhood that we didn't belong there anymore. Sure enough I was surrounded at a 4 way stop being asked if I wanted anything and when I said I was just there to check out my grandparents home told to gtf outta there. Scary shit it was. Especially when leaving the neighborhood I was pulled over by the police and pulled out of my car because I didn't look like I belonged there and asked where I hid the drugs because I was a white suburban kid in a gang infested drug dealing zone. Their thinking was the only reason someone like me would be there was to buy drugs. Sad when you can't even visit your grandparents home for the memories. Warrendale has definitely changed.

      Dubz_ Detroiter_ No parents moved us to Sterling Hts. I always tell the younger kids who grew up in the suburbs. The thing I miss the most about growing up in Detroit was the sense of community. Everyone knew everyone on the whole block. In the suburbs you’re lucky if you know a few neighbors on either side of you. Wouldn’t change growing up in Detroit one bit...

    I live not too far from this and it’s sad to say, but these conditions literally spread. All you have to do is drive down some side streets in damn near any suburb of metro Detroit and you will see more and more neighborhoods turning into this. The deeper you get, the worse it gets. You’re in one city on the other side of the street and it’s safe and beautiful looking and then you cross the street and now you’re in a different city and this is what you see.

You’re softer than mashed potatoes and we don’t have low standards you punk ass bitches are just high maintenance. Instead of trying to shit on someone who is motivated to become something better, how about you worry about your backyard gazebo, or your picket fence.

      Jessica Edmister, It was a state ruling. Fout's can't deny them the right to go to school in Warren. In 2004 Jennifer Granholm was the one who changed the rule. It use to be you could only go to school in the district you lived in but Granholm a Democrat changed that because of the failure rate of the Detroit Public School System. Detroit residents can go to school in Grosse Pointe, Sterling Heights, Warren, Bloomfield or anywhere else. If they want to commute 100 miles to another school they can. And yes the crime rate increase outside of the city in public schools due to her decision. Fitzgerald High School in Warren now resembles the school in "Lean On Me". A student was murdered there in class last week.
