Scott Norvell asks "Where's the Outrage?"

The Detroit City Council wants to implement an economic development plan that rails against immigrants and non-black minorities and sets aside city money for an exclusively African-American business district, reports the Detroit Free Press.

Members of the council want to adopt a plan dubbed "Powernomics" that advocates spending taxpayers' money on a business district dubbed African Town. The plan explicitly blames the plight of Detroit's black residents on immigrants from Mexico, Asia and the Middle East.

In voting to implement the Powernomics plan, the council also passed a resolution that designates blacks, who make up 83 percent of Detroit's population, as the "majority minority" group and another that creates a development corporation that would operate as a loan fund exclusively for black entrepreneurs.
