21:17Now PlayingFrom the 1950s into the 1970s, highways built in U.S. cities profoundly wounded black communities. Many of these thoroughfares were a part of the federally-funded system of highways that went through black communities displacing thriving black businesses and homes.
Now a federal grant will rectify what the construction of one of the shortest signed interstates, Detroit's I-375, did to Black neighborhoods like Black Bottom and Paradise Valley 60 years ago.
On Thursday, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg announced a $1 million program named Reconnecting Communities for the city of Detriot for its long-awaited plan to destroy the depressed freeway. Buttigieg says to fix a problem, we have to face and accept what caused it.
The highway removal could begin as soon as 2025, two years earlier than expected, with construction finished by 2028.
