“Ghost city”, “crime capital”, “the big bankruptcy”, “the ruin”—these are some of the names used to refer to Detroit, all of them ahistorical and biased, but useful for urban speculators. Detroiters is a videographic project developed by CaldodeCultivo in complicity with numerous Detroit poets and activists, who respond to the violence of the clichés and stereotypes with the creative energy of slam poetry, weaving a powerful narrative of their city.
