Detroit Walk to Freedom, Gen Z Workforce, Silence the Violence, One Detroit Weekend | Full Episode
Rev. Dr. JoAnn Watson, senior pastor of West Side Unity Church in Detroit, reflects on attending the 1963 Detroit Walk to Freedom with her grandparents ahead of the Detroit NAACP’s 60th-anniversary anniversary commemoration of the march. And we get a look at the awardees and keynote speaker for the NAACP’s 68th annual Fight for Freedom Fund dinner at Huntington Place.
Then, we have a conversation with three members of Gen Z to find out what they think about the future of work and whether they will stay in Michigan to pursue a career after graduation.
Plus, the Church of the Messiah gears up for its 16th annual Silence the Violence march and rally on June 17 to honor gun violence victims and advocate for solutions to end the alarming rate of gun violence impacting communities of color.
And we share what you can do for Father’s Day, Juneteenth and more this weekend on “One Detroit Weekend.”
