The city of Detroit remains immersed in a time of massive change. Ongoing bankruptcy proceedings, an approaching mayoral election, and the possibility of an auction of Detroit Institute of Arts masterpieces are on people's minds.
Joining us today is Stephen Henderson, editorial page editor for the Detroit Free Press.
As part of our State of Opportunity project, Michigan Radio has partnered with the Detroit Free Press, The Center for Michigan, and WDET to host three community conversations with Detroit residents in three different locations in Detroit this Thursday. The goal is to talk with resident about what they see happening in the city and what would make Detroit a place where they feel they can build a future.
If you’re a resident of Detroit and would like to participate in one of the community conversations this Thursday, October 24th at 6:00 pm you can a reserve spot at one of three Detroit locations. Stephen Henderson will be at the Northwest Activities Center, Craig Fahle with WDET will be at the Northeast Guidance Center, and Jennifer White be at El Nacimiento in Southwest Detroit.
