This thesis utilizes a combination of primary sources and secondary sources such as newspaper articles, community organizational records, autobiographies, blog posts, and interviews to contribute a narrative of Detroit that discusses the conditions of Detroit post-1967 into the twenty-first century. Although industrial decline and white flight were major contributors to Detroit’s decline, the negligence of the city administration to provide an inner-city efficient infrastructure, adequate public housing, and proper civic service response and police-community relations. Research about Detroit revealed the city corruption within Coleman A. Young's city administration was vital to the overall decline of Detroit during his twenty-year tenure. 2018-08-03 English text Bowling Green State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=bgsu1526043959787682 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=bgsu1526043959787682 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
