In a column critical of the Detroit City Council\'s plan to create a $30 million-a-year entrepreneurial zone called Africa Town, Laura Berman contends the plan would \"accelerate the city\'s demise, not stem it.\" The plan would classify black Detroiters as an \"under-served majority\" entitled to special funds other groups could not apply for. Berman writes: \"While immigrants elsewhere in America are revitalizing urban areas, they\'re moving straight to the suburbs here - and revitalizing them, notes Kurt Metzger, the research director at Wayne State University\'s Center for Urban Studies.\"
