Michigan’s GOP attorney general investigates the Ford Foundation for (among other things) neglecting the city that helped make its wealth possible:

Thirty years later, Henry Ford II’s lament [that the foundation is hostile to capitalism] persists; only the details have changed. Now the complaints are intensely political — that Ford Foundation grants supported groups that essentially turned a U.N. World Conference Against Racism five years ago into a platform for anti-Semitic rants, that it backs political correctness on college campuses, that its funds could end up backing violence or terrorism…
Ford Foundation grants to Detroit — America’s poorest city — totaled less than $2 million between 1998 and 2002, says Cox, citing statistics from the Foundation Center’s Statistical Information Service.
In the same period, New York charities received grants totaling $684 million and those based in Washington, D.C., received $526 million. Even Cleveland, Pittsburgh and St. Louis received more than a larger and poorer Detroit.
