It bears mentioning that no one quoted in this article actually uses the word "diversity."
NOBOMA appears unfamiliar with Detroit demographics. Per the 2000 Census (2010 data isn't yet available), the city of Detroit was 81.6% black, but Wayne County as a whole was 40.5% black. That doesn't represent forced racial integration. It represents the fallout of decades of white flight and disinvestment in the urban core.
