What’s It Going To Take??

I wonder what its going to take to wake you up. Last year the people of Detroit gave Mike Duggan the overseer a third term as mayor. In a city with a black church on every corner the people gave Mike Duggan a third term. In a city where people were forced to over pay their property tax by six hundred million dollars without any recourse Mike Duggan is still the Mayor.

In a city where the I-375 corridor is famous for displacing Detroits robust black community there are now plans to remove it. Where are the plans for low and moderate price housing in that corridor. Oh that’s right they don’t exist. Where are the voices of the NAACP and the myriad of other black organizations and churches? Bought off and silenced and you still don’t understand that without unity you are sheep led to the slaughter.

I’ve put my blood sweat and tears into forming the Detroit New Day Community Cooperative. It’s yours, it’s your chance to make sure that Deteoit is representative of you. There is no hierarchy, every member as an equal voice. You have a choice to make, come together and own your own economic and social advancement or continue to play the game that is stacked against you.

If you don’t want self determination please reply with a comment. I need to understand why we continue to be trapped by the legacy of slavery. What I know with absolute certainty is that in order to win 🏆 you must believe you deserve to win. A journey of a thousand miles begins with but a single step. https://detroitnewday.org/

  1. … and the GOP will only make things worse. My grandfather showed me what must be done with rabid dogs. It’s time.

  2. We as a community don’t know how to be free, it’s my belief my people are satisfied with being crabs in a barrel. How in the hell can a Black community elect a duggan with the support of pulpit pimps and “alleged” Black leaders? Detroit is being held hostage by just enough to keep us in line! I’m gonna borrow from Janet Jackson (Ms.Jackson if you nasty) What the hell have y’all done for Detroit, not just lately but ever???
