What REALLY Happened to Detroit's Brightmoor (Barbarian 2022) || The horror movie Barbarian 2022 takes place in Brightmoor, a blighted neighborhood in Detroit that -- according to how Barbarian explained it -- was heavily affected by Detroit's White Flight; white American migration based in racism and classism thanks to the era of redlining. So while Barbarian explained the events that lead to its story, I want to focus on how Detroit's White Flight impacted the actual neighborhood of Brightmoor that's featured in the Barbarian movie instead of providing a typical Barbarian movie review. Both what it got right, and especially what it got wrong.
