Detroit's mayor and police chief: what we actually know | The Metro (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For about a year, Mayor Mary Sheffield has seemed to be riding high. To get elected, she mounted an impressive campaign, taking 77 % of the vote. Once in office, she hit the ground running. The mayor has created new anti-poverty and community safety departments. Many have commented on her leadership skills, balancing confidence and intellect with openness, and a willingness to listen. That was true during the summer, when a number of kids were participating in “teen takeovers.” The police depart
The Metro: Why the economy resembles the Covid era for many small businesses - WDET 101.9 FM (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As the Iran war continues, gas prices hit a weekly average of $4.88 in Metro Detroit. The average price of diesel is $2 more than that. The stock market is strong, but inflation is at least 1% higher than the federal reserve’s target. And the U.S. is in a trade war with Canada. This hasn’t caused a recession.

Tomorrow marks 25 years since the twin towers came down. That day, before people mourned, they were in shock. What came next reshaped this country. The Patriot Act. Two wars. Here at home, a registration program fingerprinted, photographed and questioned more than 80,000 men and boys largely from Muslim-majority countries. It didn’t produce a single terrorism conviction. Meanwhile, reported hate crimes against Muslims jumped seventeenfold in one year. They have never returned to where they were.
The Metro: An initiative wants to remove money from Michigan politics. Can it? - WDET 101.9 FM (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Is money corrupting Michigan’s politics? According to a Politico poll, 72% of Americans say there’s too much money in politics. Respondents said special interest spending leads to corruption that should be restricted. In Michigan, a local campaign believes residents can have a stronger, more representative democracy if political spending by some big-time actors is limited. The Michiganders for Money Out of Politics measure, which is now on the November ballot, would change some aspects of how mo
