Summary
During the "long, hot summer" of 1967, racial violence erupted in 159 cities all across America. From Tampa to Texas, Birmingham to Boston, Newark and New York, Cleveland, Chicago, East St. Louis...city after city exploded in strife.
Detroit, the "Model City", was thought to be safe.
It wasn't.
An Intrinsic Dereliction traces the story of the racist racial unrest, turmoil, and decay that has led Detroit, once the fourth-largest city in America and the fastest -rowing city in the world, to an unparalleled state of urban blight, neglect, and crime, a third-world city in the midst of America, rotted to its core.
