Great mini-documentary on Michigan’s odious Emergency Manager Law

/Blogging for Michigan/Eclectablog:

This 7-minute documentary, Dictators Over Communities of Color: Coming to a Town Near You , was put together by the New Media Adovocacy Project in cooperation with Michigan Forward and the Advancement Project. It’s well worth a watch and I would love for you to share it widely. This isn’t just something Michiganders should be paying attention to.
Big shout out to my very good friend Brit Satchwell. He’s the super-energetic guy toward the end with the sunglasses and big smile working the Ann Arbor Farmer’s market. Brit is the president of the Ann Arbor Education Association, our local teachers’ union and a phenomenal organizer.
Motor City Liberal Comment: Electablog is doing the work what channel 2,4.7 and the Detroit Free press used to do report the truth.

Why did/does Grandmole hate Black folk?

Again I know truth and facts are to conservatives what crosses and sharp pointed objects are to vampires. You guys can act like EFM always had these powers all you want the fact remains they didn't have these broad powers until Rick Snyder and the equally corrupt Michigan Republicans in Lansing gave it to them earlier in the year.

You act as if they did not exist before Snyder.

Grandmole took the power away from the poor downtrodden citizens of Benton Harbor. Grandmole engineered the takeover.

Another inconvenient truth for you is that the citizens of BH have, every time, expressed support for the EFM over the idiots that had gotten themselves elected and run the town into the ground.

I long for the purity of the Democrat party to again wash over us!

I give you right wingers credit despite me repeating the facts around this story, you guys continue to repeat this meme.
Yes there were EFM before Rick Snyder became governor the VERY big detail many of you and his supporters in the media leaves out. They didn't have these expansive power until Snyder and the corrupt Republicans in Lansing gave it to them.
Show me an article proving EFM had these powers before Snyder signed that bill into law. You can't and if you do it's from a far right wing blog from idiots like Republican Michigander, Blogprof and Motor City Times.
