Kimberly Adams on who carries the economy | The Metro (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The numbers can tell you what is happening in the economy, but they rarely tell you why. For example: among college-educated women in their prime working years, Black women are the most likely to be working or looking for work. Yet they make up about 2% of private-sector managers, according to an analysis by economist Valerie Wilson, published last month by the Institute for Women’s Policy Research. In other words, showing up is not the same as moving up. This week, that institute brought a nati
The risk you can't see in Michigan landfills | The Metro (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Michigan buries more trash per person than any state in the country. About 1 in 5 tons comes from somewhere else, most of it from Canada, because it’s cheap to dump trash here. A landfill is sealed, and the waste inside keeps breaking down for decades making methane, liquid and heat. That matters for the people who live nearby. Even on an ordinary day, landfills release benzene and other chemicals you can’t see. When the heat climbs, those emissions rise with it, and neighbors report headaches,
Detroit's co-op grocery fights to survive | The Metro (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For more than a decade, a group of Detroiters worked toward something the city was lacking. In a city that’s nearly 80% Black, there were almost no Black-owned grocery stores. So they set out to build one — owned by the people it serves. In 2024, the Detroit People’s Food Co-op opened on Woodward in the North End. Two years later, it’s asking for help. The co-op says it’s bringing in close to $3 million a year. Before it opened, it projected about $80,000 a week — more than $4 million. This mont
The schools built to erase her family | The Metro (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For more than a century, the U.S. government took Native children from their homes and sent them to boarding schools. Students were forced to cut their hair, forbidden from speaking their languages, and abused in an effort to erase their identity. Richard Henry Pratt, the Army officer who founded the first of the so-called schools, said the point was to “kill the Indian, save the man.” There were hundreds of these schools and Michigan had several. The federal government’s own investigation has d
Can Detroiters heal without waiting on the system? | The Metro (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On Detroit’s east side there’s a two-story brick house that sat empty for a long time. It took three years of fundraising and about $100,000 to fix it up. It’s called the Healing Hub and kids come there to do their laundry, use a computer, get tutored — and sit in a circle and talk about what’s happened to them. There’s also a refrigerator in the front yard, another one out back, and a deep freezer inside. Those stay stocked around the clock, and people come overnight — some of them with nowhere
