For decades Detroit was the sickest city in the country AND was "ruled" by a corrupt race baiter, Coleman Young.
During his regime... the decline was steep and steady... especially economically!
A million residents migrated elsewhere.
Ultimately, there was no choice but bankruptcy... which wiped out the incredible debt as well as all the useless, corrupt government programs that had caused it.
Fortunately, Detroit's citizens also rejected race baiting politics and elected a mayor who actually properly managed the city's government functions.
He was a Democrat... but they didn't care that he was white!
The people saw beyond identity and elected competency!
Identity politics is antithetical to good governance.

about the Auto Industry's actions over many decades...anti-union moves to suburbs...racial red lining...etc., etc.
This problem started back in the 1950's and 60's...how's about starting there with your "Analysis".

because Union wages made building cars here financially catastrophic. A one million persin population decline over a decade.
THIS was real unaffordablility and the same process is underway in our bluest states.
...when people write "race baiter," they think "N word."
My guess is that applies to all uses of that phrase.
Anyone who's lived in or near the D knows that Coleman Young's campaigns were prime race baiting.
Or are Blacks incapable of racism?
They are human beings Afterall.
