♦ “Bankrupt–How Cronyism and Corruption Brought Down Detroit” is a 40 minute documentary video focusing on why Detroit went from being a leading edge American industrial and arts city to a dangerous and bankrupt slum over a short span of years. Two of the largest driving forces behind Detroit’s tumble were cronyism and corruption, challenges clearly plaguing Salisbury. Our city’s fall will never be anywhere near as dramatic as Detroit’s for the reason that Salisbury has existed as a struggling North Carolina city for over 40 years. Since the Fibrant debacle began, Salisbury’s downward spiral sped up dramatically.
