NO this area had NEVER been COMPLETELY BLACK WE were THERE 1969 to 1985 when WE moved there many of who you are talking about DID move over the years But had NEVER been all black WE where the 3rd on our block !
That’s not “our” culture. Those houses were built by Europeans. Detroit was for Europeans. I can’t get into these old style homes by and for Europeans. It’s like leftovers. All those old houses and buildings look like Europe. When Europeans migrated they brought THEIR culture and architecture with them. As a black person, how do you preserve their homes!?
MY FAMILY lived there from 69 to 85 and I thoroughly ENJOYED being there ... another reason to be there the home values have always stayed above the average in Detroit so it’s like an INVESTMENT
