Detroit Highway That DISPLACED Thriving Black Neighborhoods To Be DEMOLISHED | Roland Martin

- From the 1950s into the 1970s, highways built in U.S. cities profoundly wounded black communities. Many of these thoroughfares were a part of the federally-funded system of highways that went through black communities displacing thriving black businesses and homes.
Now a federal grant will rectify what the construction of one of the shortest signed interstates, Detroit's I-375, did to Black neighborhoods like Black Bottom and Paradise Valley 60 years ago.
On Thursday, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg announced a $1 million program named Reconnecting Communities for the city of Detriot for its long-awaited plan to destroy the depressed freeway. Buttigieg says to fix a problem, we have to face and accept what caused it.
The highway removal could begin as soon as 2025, two years earlier than expected, with construction finished by 2028.

My grandparents who came to Detroit from MS in the early 40's. They opened several lucrative businesses in downtown Detroit and was living the dream until the city imposed imminent domain and took their properties.
This is something that is coming to life and the families are fighting and getting their properties back. May you be one that'll be able to tell that story
Check out "Not Just Bikes" video on suburbia. Its increadible spot on why its a ponzi scheme that stagnates growth.
Large metropolitan cities tend to destroy minority neighborhoods for highways and other business ventures.
This happened in Cleveland, Milwaukee, Little Rock and Memphis and so many communities.
Happened in Washington DC also. There are those of us who lived and played in south-west DC before the expressway was built. You can visit the MLK Library Washingtoniana Room and see the pictures of the housing and businesses existing there from that era.
Sure they do it now after gentrifying the city. The interest is def not with black people in mind now.
DR CARR👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 EXACTLY 💯 💯
Exactly 💯
Yes, how often do you hear people say I'm from the wrong side of the tracks meaning the neighborhood where they live is on the other side of the highway or train track. All over the U.S. this was the pre-set design to destroy culture and strong economic neighborhoods.
Dr Carr you on point.

Yep, Buffalo, NY. Now they are doing what is known as "Buffalo Revitalization," better known as gentrification or Urban Development. In Buffalo, the suburbs look like slums now, so it looks like they're forcing the Blacks into those areas and moving the Whites back into the city. The expressway (the 33) has served its purpose. Even a large wading pool which was a gathering place for Black families is suddenly being used as an ice skating rink. Not many Blacks ice skate in that community. I left Buffalo to go to college, came home to visit, and saw a lot of White children playing. I looked at my husband and said, "WTF." I told my little brother that we will not sell our family home because the property value will shoot up.
Speaking of the I-375 project has anyone driven down Michigan Ave and Trumble area? A new giant hotel a new apartment building, bars,shopping and banks! Ford Motor Company renovation of the old Train Station! I drive through that area every day on the way to work at MGM Grand and its stunning how much that area has changed in the past 2 or 3 years!!
A lot of my Black friends lost their property due to "heir's property". Because they could not get probate attorneys during the 1920's and 30's, mainly due to "Jim Crow". I-375 came through in 1958-59. People had to start packing up long before they started breaking ground. The bulldozers started work in 1961, by 1964 they had already started pouring concert. The I-375 finished in 1970. After money was release from the Vietnam War budget.

@@RapidResponce don’t call him Uncle Tom… that’s an honor
@@RapidResponce Uncle Tom? It's an honor? Please explain what you're talking about. What makes him an "Uncle Tom"?
@@alslimshady7215 I hope that crow pecks out your eyes
@@barbarawashington8318 Uncle Tom II is a documentary/movie
Man this is some great information also I grew up in Detroit we left about 20 years ago but many of my family still resides there but this is not just happening in Detroit it's all across America especially in the big major cities my uncle who lives in Charlotte NC used to live one block from the Panthers stadium he would walk around the corner to watch them practice which they no longer practice there but he was forced out of that neighborhood because of infrastructure now they have big expensive apartments and loft homes and Karen's walking their dogs they've forced the blacks to certain zip codes in not so good neighborhoods you can't afford a $4,500 to $5,000 a month for a one bedroom apartment!
Dr Carr it is so true this is happening in Wilmington DE...THEY ARE COMING BACK!
Dr Carr always hits the nail on the head.
Too painful. A nightmare.
I recommend people also watch dane calloway's channel, black americans are the true american Indians, it's time to reclaim this land
There were blacks in America when Columbus came. Blacks discovered the world before Columbus and others.
@jarell1165
Incorrect, anything but african huh? All of world history completely disproves what youre trying to insinuate, stop stealing history 💯 be proud of where you come from even if it's from slavery.
“The price of freedom is eternal vigilance” wow! So true
How will Black folk benefit from this????
There should be a committee to evaluate the entire US Highway and do the same for Other thriving cities displacing blacks. 95 South and Overtown should be considered. Those survivors now lives in Liberty City, is among thousands who were forced out of their homes in the 1960s to make room for Interstate 95 and later, Interstate 395.
TELLING THE TRUTH‼️‼️
REFRESHING
I can not listen to a lot of other media.
So what does this mean for Detroit today. Well, the White investors, like the owners of the Detroit Pistons and the Tigers, long with Ford and Mason, will buy up much of the available land..., once it comes up for sell. Very few Black investors will be able to get any of the land, because they will be priced out. Right now the local Blacks are hoping to be players in the hunt for some of the land. But my guest is that they will get 30 acres or less of any of the land. And will suffer in the road planning portion, sewage, water and power needs of their projects. As always the City will fall short in being fair to those that live in Detroit. It will all focus of a lot of dead presidents. Money.

Its still going on in Corpus Christi TX.The new bridge has no exits to Hillcrest neighborhood and other neighborhoods and businesses owned or frequented by black and brown people.
Wow! I'm having Deja Vu... Im from Lovejoy,il. (or Brooklyn, il.). America's 1st Black Incorporated Town. The ILDOT received funding to rebuild Rt3 that runs directly through our town and a neighboring black populated town. They've rerouted those funds to facilitate a nearby race track. I even made a statement for court records of it's effects to these communities. Yet, to no avail. Wish I knew what to try. But it's 😢.
Own a home is family's roots
Same thing they in Brooklyn. Some many of the elders in Bedford Stuyvesant lost their homes. Inflated property taxes that cause them to lose their homes as the whites move in.
Thanks for the awesome show and info.
michael barnes? 97th & ingelside, skully
BoA announced the interest rate would be 7.5% which is higher than current rates
Detroit integration will lead to complete black gentrification in Detroit.
Almost happened in Philly but did not. A similar highway would have obliterated the Cobbs Creek section which was and is a predominately black area. Wilt Chamberlain lived there for a while.
Oh yeah, this is the problem.🙄
My family had a business in Paradise Valley
Greeting to you Reecie congratulations on your time to have your own show on Roland Martin black Network. I would like to see you on Fox and MSNBC, and others just to get the experience you think you need. 😉 love the panel 😍Dr. Carr, Professor Michael, Dr. Nichols. However, to see you challenged yourself helps me understand our conversation, and how it changes are circumstances. It's just not talk its actions.
She doesn't like MSNBC, both of them don't... everyday I'm starting to dislike black star network more.
@@sillygoose635 @Stevie the only reason you may not want to indulge In Black Network. It maybe a little too truthful. Yes it may hit a nerve or two. Black Network deal with facts which turns out to be truth. MSNBC also deals with facts also; however, Fox is a Business propaganda not a New Network right.
This happened to my grandparents in Milwaukee.
I like Recie but Michael deserved the final say about what he knows being and living in Detroit with a unique perspective on the topic of Detroit freeways
Like doctor Carr say that was some good information some people need to know these information about buying a house because a lot of people be thinking it's hard to buy a house.
There's nothing wrong with the freeway after all this time. It's stupid but it's used in volume everyday by vehicles to access major North South freeways. Turning it into a Boulevard NOW is regressive.
The highway takes up a space 12 blocks long and 2 blocks wide. What's your suggestion? Just leave it???
The other thing about buying property in Detroit is the requirement to stay in the property for an extended period of time in order to qualify for the $1 housing lots and teardowns that are still available.
"Is there going to be a march!!
A PLEASURE LISTENING TO PETE B.
Am I the only one that heard him say “Deport” 3:04 😂
I really like the host of the show's hair. Her hair is beautiful I love the natural look.
Dr. Carr, Dr. Nichols and Michael but i didn't get the hosts name.
All wars are based on acquiring land, and what the land produces.
1 thousand 10 thousand another party we won't be invited to gown unfortunately
The defense Highway Act of 1956 was the result of state and central planning along with lobbyists of the oil cartels to heavily incentivized road infrastructure including auto manufacturing. Which also resulted in the creation of the soul crushing suburbia along with the cancerous HOA (Home Owners Association). In others one of the greatest legislative virus that has divided communites, destroyed local buisnesses, increased isolation..may i need to say more?
1. How did most cities determine where to build those highways? Wouldn't it be a waste of labor and resources to build those highways in the wrong areas?
2. Are there any examples of those highways ever being built through largely white areas?
True that, the devil is in the details! Not every Realtor will be qualified to completely inform you of your purchasing options for your financial situation. You may have to consult with several to have a reasonable chance of acquiring enough information to make the playing field level and you should understand exactly how you stand before you begin to actively tour potential homes for your family. Adjustable-rate loans can work if you are disciplined and plan ahead for the inevitable increase in the mortgage payment amount.
So they're getting rid of Route 375. That can only be a good thing. Will the state also downgrade the Gratiot Avenue Connector and replace the bowl of spaghetti with a roundabout on the surface and a tunnel for Route 75 connecting the Chrysler and the Fisher? 🤔
The Oklahoma DOT of chipping away at my land and the county won’t update the records.
No surprises here at all.
this is a joke 2 little 2 late invest in trade schools 4 young & old.
At least they didn’t turn it I to a lake
Ah yes….Shaker Heights, Ohio fought tooth and nail against a Highway in the suburb to protect Shaker Lakes.
UNCLE TOM II 💪🏾
How come Biden never mention that ? I wander if he was part of plan
same thing happening here in Corpus Christi (The Body of Christ, in latin).
tea party pete will say anything for power
This is not a victory…All I see is New Age Gentrification…and I know because I live in Detroit.
APTTMHY. The Gentiles are being Judged. YASHAREL is being restored. The Gentiles are being swept from our lands.
FREEWAY GOES DOWN TO MOVE WHITE FOLKS IN😁
OK, so you demolish a highway that's purported to have "wrecked a community." What do you do with the community then? Many people who live there depend on this highway.
You won’t see them here making 😅comments
Good for Pete.
he's fake. tea party pete

If this guy actually hit the streets of Detroit he’d be in a dress getting a train ran in a hurry . No matter who he’s fighting for they’d eat him alive lol
I sit in paradise valley everyday… it’s a shame how the colonizers took our land
I bet not one of you want to live next to Pookie, RayRay and Quanesha. I know I don't. I have a quiet life AND ITS GOING TO STAY THAT WAY! NO DRAMA! 9.'22
I'd rather live next door to them than Peggy, Susan, Billy Bob, and Dick.
I recommend people also watch dane calloway's channel, black americans are the true american Indians, it's time to reclaim this land
Dane Callaway looks more like a Nigerian Igbo than an indigenous Indian of the Americas...
Black people arent native americans…
