On today's Stateside, we took a closer look at crime rates in Detroit, as well as where in the city those decreased rates are reflected. Next, we spoke with the CEO of Freedom House in Detroit. The need for migrant services is exceeding what's available. Then, we revisited our conversation with Curtis Chin, whose memoir just made the Library of Michigan's 2024 Michigan Notable Books list. Plus, we spoke with another Michigan author about her new novel, which follows a Lansing woman who is murdered by a serial killer and comes back to life.
