Some Famous People called Coleman Young

Coleman Young

Coleman Alexander Young (May 24, 1918 – November 29, 1997) was an American politician who served as mayor of Detroit, Michigan, from 1974 to 1994. Young was the first African-American mayor of Detroit.

Young had emerged from the far-left element in Detroit, and moderated somewhat after his election as mayor. He called an ideological truce and gained widespread support from the city's business leaders. The new mayor was energetic in the construction of the Joe Louis Arena, and upgrading the city's mass transit system. He assisted General Motors in building its new "Poletown" plant at the site of the former Dodge Main plant in Hamtramck. Some opponents said that he pulled money out of the neighborhoods to rehabilitate the downtown business district, but he said "there were no other options."

Young's tenure as mayor has been blamed in part for the city's ills, which have included the exodus of white middle-class taxpayers to the suburbs, the emergence of powerful drug-dealing gangs, and the rising crime rate. However, some of these things began well before Young's tenure.

In 1981, Young received the Spingarn Medal for achievement from the NAACP.
