How can the city of Detroit and its first suburbs work together to create a vibrant and equitable region for the future?

Join public officials, policymakers, clergy, community members, and filmmaker Andrea Torrice, for a round table discussion regarding our regional perspectives on these issues.

Light dinner and refreshments followed by film and discussion.

This forum is part of The New Metropolis national civic engagement dialogue series on revitalizing America’s older communities. It is made possible through the generous support of the Ford and Surdna Foundations.

Event Sponsors: Detroit Public TV, Metropolitan Organizing Strategy Enabling Strength (MOSES), Michigan Suburbs Alliance, Michigan Department of Civil Rights, Model D Media, Torrice Productions, and Working Films.
