About this photo
This is a bar chart showing the Detroit population by racial-ethnic group from 1960 to 2020. The chart displays stacked bars representing different racial groups over time, with the y-axis indicating population in thousands and millions. The mood is informative and data-driven, with a clean, academic style. A notable detail is the significant decrease in total population shown by the declining height of the bars over the decades. The title reads "Detroit Population by Racial-Ethnic Group". Text overlays at the top state "Total population by group (thousands), 1960-2020" and "City within administrative boundaries | 2020: Black 496.5k (77.7%), White 60.8k (9.5%), Hispanic/Latino 51.3k (8.0%)".
