Truth is the city never recovered after the 67 riots, and thanks to kilpatrick and company we are paying every cent for his mistakes. we are hard working citizens with hopes and dreams for? a better improved city through our sacrifices and determination. I really pray that Detroit becomes a great city that prospers but it can only be achieved by BELIEVING, HEALING, & FORGIVING something this city continues to cry out for.
