@grubert.bsky.socialU don't see it anywhere else in the US because there is only one large city #Detroit that is 80% African-American.
This mirrors other majority Black cities in America. (majority being > 55 - 70%, the higher the percentage, or the larger the city, the greater the effect)
@grubert.bsky.socialThe #Bankruptcy of #Detroit - also a method of corruption.
The facts presented in the case were false.
The parties involved violated state law.
The resolution took 💰 from workers to corporations.
Not the purpose of bankruptcy laws.
An oligarchy affair.
@grubert.bsky.socialThis long-standing issue in #Detroit stems from corruption among city and state officials, reflecting a lack of ethics among both #Democrats and #Republicans in #Michigan.
The problems are NOT tied to the bankruptcy.
This helps explain why nearly 60% of residents do not vote in the city.

@jobfairgiant.bsky.social@grubert.bsky.socialThe civilian police oversight board, #Detroit Board of Police Commissioners, are losing their access to the police officer Body Worn Camera footage. This hinders their ability to fulfill their duty of investigating complaints against the police department.
Support restoring their access.
