SELFRIDGE PASSED UP FOR F-35 TRAINING SCHOOL dvaglia@candgnews.com
HARRISON TOWNSHIP — After nearly a year of research, study and consideration, the Department of the Air Force has decided against placing a new fighter mission at Selfridge Air National Guard Base. Marked throughout the process as the second alternative for an F-35 Lightning II fighter jet training mission to help foreign pilots learn the new planes, Selfridge was turned down as the host base in favor of Ebbing Air National Guard Base in Fort Smith, Arkansas. “The 127th Wing, Selfridge ANGB, and our com-
munity were postured, capable and ready to take on this mission, and I thank everyone who supported us in this endeavor,” said Brig. Gen. Rolf Mammen, commander of the 127th Wing. “We continue to stand ready to take on any mission the Air Force chooses to base here.” The decision is the latest setback in getting the F-35 to the base, which is slated to replace the attack role currently held by A-10 jets like those stationed at the installation based in Harrison Township. An effort was made by Macomb County, communities throughout the county, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and Michigan’s congressional delegation to convince the Air Force to choose Selfridge over

Mount Clemens commission signs SMART contracts Local author to discuss Detroit auto industry founding, workings
BY DEAN VAGLIA dvaglia@candgnews.com
MOUNT CLEMENS — It was transportation night at the March 6 Mount Clemens City Commission meeting as commissioners agreed on two items related to the Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation, the region’s bus transit services provider. The first SMART item was the distribution of American Rescue Plan Act funds from the agency to the city. “Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation, as a direct recipient of American Rescue Plan Act funding, has been designated to distribute this funding to subrecipients,” said Gregg Shipman, the interim city manager. “The purpose of this funding is to provide economic relief to entities affected by COVID-19.” Funds totaling $39,862 were handed over from the agency to reimburse Mount Clemens for the operation of city-managed transportation services. The second agreement was a contract for the Specialized Services Program for operating assistance, which allows for Michigan Department of Transportation funds to pay for SMART senior and handicapped transportation services.

METRO DETROIT — Though people the world over know Detroit as the “Motor City,” few know the full story of the industry that put southeast Michigan on the map. Author and freelance writer Paul Vachon is one such informed person, and he will give a talk about the industry as chronicled in his book “Becoming the Motor City: A Timeline of Detroit’s Auto Industry” at the Mount Clemens Public Library on Wednesday, March 29. Based in Oak Park and a former resident of Royal Oak and Bloomfield Hills, Vachon has always been surrounded by the automotive industry. His parents worked for automotive suppliers, but his first foray into archiving regional automotive See VACHON on page 8A

year permit to lay, maintain and install its cables within rights of way owned by the city of Mount Clemens. This approval marks 123NET’s entry into Mount Clemens, though it is unknown if the company will make its fiber services available for residential use. Such services are only available in select communities in Wayne, Oakland and Washtenaw counties. According to City Attorney Michael Murray, the METRO Act limits municipalities to charging communications companies a $500 permit to operate cables located in an area for five years. This was passed in 2002 to standardize permit fees across the state. “The city still gets some fees though from their engineering, some (from) building, those types of things,” Murray said. “But this is just for the privilege of laying in the
On March 6, city commissioners approved the first reading of amendments to the city’s blight elimination ordinance. The changes made to sections 19.003 and 19.004 of the city’s code of ordinances will allow the Administrative Hearings Bureau to take over as the enforcement body for blight-related concerns. The changes will be made effective once a second reading has occurred, likely at the commission’s March 20 meeting.

HARRISON TOWNSHIP — The Harrison Township Beautification Commission will host its annual Earth Day Community Litter Clean-Up on Saturday, April 22.

Attendees do not need to bring any special materials or equipment, though they should dress with mud in mind. “Provided by the commission are gloves, bags, litter pickers and refreshments,” said Sue Keehn, chair of the Harrison Township Beautification Commission. The cleanup will mostly occur throughout the township in groups and is based on how many people attend. Keehn expects around 50-60 attendees. “The goal of beautification is to continue to beautify the community and maintain it, so it is most important to us that we are as litter free as possible,” Keehn said.

Clinton Township trustees resolve football practice field mix-up CLINTON TOWNSHIP — On March 13, the Clinton Township Board of Trustees tackled a dilemma presented when two youth football programs requested the use of the same city-owned practice fields. Trustees were first confronted with the issue at the Feb. 13 meeting, when representatives of the Clinton Township Cowboys voiced concerns over the Quinn Road Tar Heels using Prince Drewry Park as its practice location. Cowboys representatives stated they had used the field in years past. Members of the board brought representatives from both teams behind closed doors between the meetings to resolve the issue, and the results of those efforts were approved at the March 13 meeting. “For the Cowboys ... it was proposed to them that we would initially meet and they would have practice availability at Joy Boulevard Park,” Clinton Township Recreation Director Brian Kay said. “Upon their suggestion, they asked us to look into the Village Housing (site) as an option due to the close proximity to their former practice site.”
The Village Housing site is the preferred location for the Cowboys, pending approval by the local housing authority for the use of its parking lot. If parking lot use is not approved, the Cowboys will practice at Joy Boulevard Park. The Quinn Road Tar Heels will use Prince Drewry Park for practice as initially approved. “We think, after we went out and checked, that this is a great location for the Cowboys,” Clinton Township Supervisor Robert Cannon said. Each team pays $500 for maintenance and amenities to use their respective fields.
2023-24 budget discussion
On March 13, the board received the first draft of the township’s budget for the next fiscal year, ultimately deciding to receive and file the draft after a public hearing. Three members of the public spoke during the hearing. Zoning enforcement in the township, a question about whether proposal-driven voting expenses were factored into the budget and the possibility of bringing more community events to the Quinn Road area were discussed.
The decision to receive and file means the budget will be considered again at the next meeting.
Board reappointment
The board unanimously reappointed
Jim Hungerford to the Arboretum Committee for a three-year term ending on Oct. 13, 2025. Hungerford has been a member of the committee since its creation and is its current chair.

Paul Vachon is the author of the nonfiction book “Becoming the Motor City: A Timeline of Detroit’s Auto Industry.” fascinating,” Vachon said. The Ford family and company exemplifies the multifaceted and heavily influential nature of the industry, from Henry Ford’s use of assembly line production and interchangeable parts to the way he spread far-right views though publications and car sales, as well as Edsel Ford’s support of the arts in the city. This view of the automotive industry — one that has played an active role in shaping Detroit and the surrounding area, rather than simply building cars against the history unfolding around it — is the key idea Vachon hopes readers take from the book. “I wanted to show how the industry impacted southeast Michigan,” Vachon said. “I would hope that the reader would come away from it seeing that the auto industry did not really develop in isolation of each other but rather they were intimately linked.” Vachon will be at the Mount Clemens Public Library on Wednesday, March 29, to give a presentation on the book “Becoming the Motor City: A Timeline of Detroit’s Auto Industry” from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing at the free talk. The book is also available at Barnes and Noble and Amazon, on Vachon’s website at paulvachonwrites. com, and through publisher Reedy Press at reedypress.com.

history began with a work about the St. Louis auto industry from his publisher. “That book did cover some things I wasn’t aware of in the St. Louis area — some manufacturers and other things — but obviously Detroit is the center of (the auto industry) and they wanted a book that would celebrate that,” Vachon said. With his experience writing timelineoriented books about Detroit, Vachon embraced the assignment and set out searching university, public and online archives to begin finding the industry’s story from the primary and secondary sources it left behind. Though Vachon is no stranger to the rigors of nonfiction research, the lockdowns and capacity restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic forced him to take a more tactical approach to document hunting. “It was perhaps a little more challenging than it normally would be,” Vachon said. “A lot of research institutions, archives and things like that were closed and therefore unavailable. They did have some resources that were available online which I utilized. I also was able to access a lot of materials through public libraries. It took a lot of sifting and so forth to get to what I was looking for in the venue of a public library.” The search for sources took Vachon around the region, and the book’s timespan is just as widespread. Some of the most difficult research involved modern industry practices and technologies. “One thing that you don’t hear a lot about but what I did put in the back — and it kind of represents the gold standard of alternate fuels if it comes to pass — are hydrogen fuel cells,” Vachon said. “I wanted to get a layperson’s appreciation for how they work, and I was really sifting through stuff and trying to understand to the effect that I could write about it intelligently, but I’m not an engineer so it was a pretty massive challenge.” While the inclusion of hydrogen fuel cells closes the book on a future-looking perspective, the most interesting part of the book to Vachon involves intertwined corporate and family history of the Ford Motor Company. “Out of the three major automakers in the Metro Detroit area, from a historical standpoint, I’ve always found Ford the most

A colorectal screening saved my life.
When Deborah’s severe stomach pain wouldn’t go away, she was referred to a Henry Ford Health gastroenterologist and underwent a colonoscopy. This screening revealed a near-obstructing colon cancer that required surgery, then three months of chemotherapy. At her follow-up colonoscopy, the cancer was gone and she is now on a five-year screening plan—and back to working her full-time job as a caregiver at a senior assisted living facility, spending time with her five grandchildren, and resuming a crafting and woodworking business with her daughter.

New health care apprenticeship program at Macomb allard@candgnews.com
MACOMB COUNTY — Macomb Community College students considering a career in the health care field will now have the opportunity to participate in an apprenticeship. In addition, Macomb’s Michigan Apprenticeship Program Plus, also known as the MAP+ program, will continue to offer opportunities to interested students. Both programs are made possible through federal funding that the college has received. According to Macomb officials, the health care apprenticeship initiative is being funded by $2.6 million secured by U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Michigan. The health care apprenticeship program is brand-new for the college, and an advisory board helped to get it off the ground. “We ran multiple sessions engaging our community partners,” said Narine Mirijanian, the dean of Health and Public Service at Macomb. “The college is very passionate about fulfilling our mission.” The three-year apprenticeship initiative is designed to create a pathway to opportunity and sustainability for students and local health care organizations. So far, two students have acquired apprenticeships and close to 15 students are waiting to be placed. The goal is to have 60 apprenticeships completed over the three years, and also to set
a model for the southeast Michigan health care sector. According to a college press release, the program is designed to provide students the opportunity to earn money while they are learning in the classroom. An apprenticeship program trains future employees to become skilled in a trade or profession. Apprenticeship training combines classroom learning with hands-on work as students prepare for entry-level, patient-centered or business-oriented health careers. “The health care apprenticeship is a new concept for us. It was a vision the college had along with the community,” Mirijanian said. “We are very aware of what’s happening in the community. After COVID, there are significant deficiencies in the workforce. With the apprenticeships, the students could be earning and learning at the same time.” The initiative involves eight programs ranging from six weeks to one year and at least 2,000 hours of on-the-job instruction. Because of the federal grant, the apprentice will incur no costs for tuition, books, laptops, uniforms and background checks. “We’re very excited,” Mirijanian said. “The grant was very well thought through to successfully really start the program.” According to Macomb officials, some students will achieve their career goals with completion of the entry-level program, while others will use it as a stepping stone to conSee PROGRAM on page 11A

tinue their education, enhance skills and advance into higher-level opportunities in health care fields. The health care apprenticeships will offer the following certifications: medical reimbursement specialist; professional coder; nursing assistant; dental assistant; laboratory assistant; medical assistant; pharmacy technician and phlebotomy. A certified professional coder, for example, updates patient records with standardized information needed for data management and billing purposes. Students who enroll in the phlebotomy program learn how to draw blood from patients and prepare the samples for testing. Classes will be held at South Campus in Warren and at Center Campus in Clinton Township. For more information about health care apprenticeships, email jurya707@macomb.edu. Macomb’s MAP+ program was created
in 2016 with funding through the U.S. Department of Labor American Apprenticeship Initiative. From 2016 to 2021, the college registered 375 apprentices representing 41 employers in the region and served 452 pre-apprentices. The MAP+ program continuation is supported by a $610,000 appropriation through U.S. Sen. Gary Peters, D-Michigan. “Ensuring that our community’s residents have access to the training and support to succeed and prosper in the 21st century workforce, and that local employers have the talent necessary to sustain and grow their businesses is an imperative for Macomb Community College,” Macomb Community College President James O. Sawyer IV said in a prepared statement. “We’re deeply appreciative of the advocacy and action of Sens. Stabenow and Peters to secure critical financial resources that further our work in these areas.” The MAP+ program works in collaboration with the Macomb Intermediate School District to welcome students interested in the region’s construction and manu-
facturing sectors, including automotive, aerospace and defense. In the program, students enroll in shop math, industrial safety, blueprint reading and hands-on training. The MAP+ Industrial Readiness program is provided at no cost to students. “On successful completion of the classes, which are completed in one semester,
students earn a certificate with nine credits that can be applied to an associate degree and are connected to employers seeking talent,” the press release states. MAP+ is seeking students for this fall. If interested or for more information about MAP+, email ahearns@macomb.edu.

In the 1990s, Gar Wood’s Bayview Lodge served Harrison Township diners along the Lake St. Clair shoreline on Conger Bay Drive. Named after the early 20th century powerboat racer, boaters and other waterborne customers could pull into the bay and grab a bite to eat, and a patio gave landbased guests a lakeside view with their meals. While the views and ambiance of summertime dining were ideal, Pinter — a chef for Gar Wood’s at the time — says the pace of business throughout the year was not. “It was ups and downs,” Pinter said. “Water levels were low. We realized that this would be more of a year-round business. Over there, it seemed to be really busy in the summer, and after the summer months, business was light except for maybe the holidays. But other than that, you had some pretty light months’ worth of business, and it was hard to put out a continuous product at that point.”

MACOMB TOWNSHIP — As Hall Road runs through the heart of Macomb County, one can find plenty of newly built buildings and land ready for development. But one M-59 staple is celebrating its second decade of business along the highway. Located between Heydenreich and Romeo Plank roads on the Macomb Township side of Hall, restaurantgoers have known Aspen for its accommodating dining experience and classic American menu for decades. “(It is) All-American cuisine,” said Scott Pinter, the owner and chef of Aspen Restaurant. “Steaks, chops, seafood, pasta. We’re a scratch kitchen, something that anybody can come in (wearing) a T-shirt and shorts and have dinner, or they can come in a suit and tie and have dinner.” Aspen’s dedication to accommodating guests knows few bounds, with the same quality of service being given to whole parties down to the individual diner. “If we had an elderly person, if they were not physically able to cut their food, we would cut their food for them so it’s a little bit easier,” said Jackie Orr, Aspen’s events coordinator. “So, that way guests aren’t having to cut their food and their food gets cold. Or kids’ meals are coming out first, so parents can get their kids situated before their meals are out.” All of this is wrapped up in Aspen’s ski lodge aesthetic, a style aided by the wooded interior and ski racks beside the summertime patio. But Aspen was not always the skithemed restaurant it is known as today, nor was it even always a Macomb Township staple.

The seasonal nature of Gar Wood’s spurred the restaurant’s former owner to move the business away from the water and onto high-traffic Hall Road. He didn’t just move the ownership and staff — the Gar Wood’s building itself was moving, too. “The building itself has a lot of value and character to it,” Pinter said. And so, the building moved. The last meals were served at the waterfront site in October 2002, and once the building was cut into about 60 pieces, it was shipped

Ebbing, though Macomb County Executive Mark Hackel says the decision ultimately came down to the preferences of the F-35 customer countries. “In 2021, we had the Singaporeans here as well as the folks from Poland and the folks from Thailand,” Hackel said. “The conversations (while) showing them around, letting them know what this airspace is all about, talking about the facilities, talking about the surrounding areas, what we offered for their families and housing (and) educational opportunities. All these things were of interest to the folks making the final decision.” While finding a replacement for the A-10 mission is a priority — the Cold Warera plane is expected to be removed from service at the end of the decade — the base’s KC-135 Stratotanker mission looks secure. A new fuel tank at the base gives Hackel hope for the base’s future. “I think there is no question at the federal level,” Hackel said. “They recognize the
over and reassembled board by board along Hall Road, opening under its new name on March 28, 2003. Today, the cuts and joints of the move can still be seen on the walls, where they were reassembled piece by piece two decades ago. Once the restaurant was rebuilt, Pinter bought the restaurant and became its owner. Aspen is celebrating its 20 years on Hall Road with specials throughout the week of the anniversary. The specials can be found on its Facebook, Instagram and Twitter pages and on the restaurant’s website at www. aspenonhall.com.
importance of Selfridge as one of their key assets for our nation’s defense.” Despite feeling the base’s future is secure, Hackel says steps will be taken to find out what made Arkansas a more suitable location for the Department of Defense than Selfridge, while searching for an A-10 replacement mission. “In the meantime, you’ve got aggressive support on behalf of Gen. (Paul D.) Rodgers (the adjutant general of the Michigan National Guard), Gen. Mammen, who is the Selfridge base commander, and even the governor saying, ‘Hey, we understand the value of this for Michigan, but we also understand the value of this for national defense,’” Hackel said. “Everything is pushing in that direction to figure out if there was something that we fell short on, how do we alleviate that as being a concern and prepare for the next round of opportunities.” According to its website, Selfridge Air National Guard Base is one of the oldest continuously operating military airfields in the nation. It opened in 1917 and houses missions for the Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and National Guard.

DEMAND SPIKES FOR USED FURNITURE DONATIONS FOR FAMILIES IN NEED
HOMES
BY K. MICHELLE MORAN kmoran@candgnews.com
METRO DETROIT — People refurbishing their homes this spring might be getting rid of old furniture and replacing it with new items. But if that old furniture is still in good shape, don’t throw it out with the trash — the nonprofit Furniture Bank of Southeastern Michigan can use it. The Furniture Bank supplies families in need with essential furniture pieces, such as beds, mattresses and kitchen tables with chairs. Furniture Bank Executive Director Robert Boyle, of Grosse Pointe Woods, said demand always increases in the spring, and that’s especially true this year, with more than 100 families on a waiting list for furnishings — a figure that’s twice as high as it was only four years ago at this time. The Furniture Bank will collect essential items in good condition from homes across metro Detroit at no charge if these items can be placed in a garage or on a porch, or they will charge a flat fee of $50 to collect any number of essentials from inside the home. Essential items include mattresses, box springs, dressers, end tables, nightstands, coffee tables, sofas and loveseats (excluding reclining sofas and sofa beds), dining room or kitchen tables (excluding glass or heavy marble), dining room or kitchen chairs (in sets of at least two), and living room chairs. The Furniture Bank will also collect as essentials up to five bags or boxes of smaller housewares, such as towels, pots, pans, silverware, lamps, bedding and other basics; the Furniture Bank cannot accept clothing. On April 1, the collection flat fee will increase to $75. Because the need for beds, mattresses and box springs in good condition is so high, Boyle said, the Furniture Bank is currently
waiving its fee to remove these items from inside a donor’s home. He estimates that they had more than 300 people waiting for mattresses at press time. “We are one of the few charities in town that will take gently used mattresses and box springs,” Boyle said. For essential items that are structurally damaged, stained, torn, badly worn or damaged by pets, they will haul these items away for $75 per item, whether it’s inside or outside the home. For fees ranging from $75 to $100 per item, the Furniture Bank will also pick up nonessential items from inside or outside of homes, including desks, bookshelves, armoires, china cabinets, buffets, sofa beds, reclining sofas, entertainment centers and TV stands. Proceeds from fees support the work of the Furniture Bank and enable it to hire professional movers to safely remove furniture. Inflation has hit everyone’s pocketbooks, but some people are better positioned to handle higher costs than others. “Hyperinflation disproportionately affects people in need,” Boyle said. Furniture — even used furniture — is an expense many families can’t afford. “Buying furniture means you may not be able to pay your rent or your utility bill, so we continue to see higher levels of referrals,” Boyle said. Of the families the Furniture Bank assists, 90% have an annual income of $20,000 or less, Boyle said. Of those families, he said 70% to 80% have household incomes of $10,000 or less. Getting a good night’s sleep is essential to health and, for children, essential for learning and develop-

ment as well, and adequate rest is not possible when people are sleeping on the floor. The Furniture Bank is life changing to people like Jerika Jones, of Harper Woods, who lost everything after a divorce, the floods of 2021 and a devastating car accident — she was helping her stranded daughter on the side of the freeway last summer when an 18-wheeler slammed into their vehicle, badly injuring them both and leaving Jones unable to work. Jones and her children — two sets of fraternal twins, ages 15 and 22 — had been sleeping on air mattresses and sitting on the floor before the Furniture Bank was able to supply them with real beds and furniture. A gently used leather chaise lounge also now occupies Jones’ bedroom — it’s been ideal for her because of her back injury. “We’re making good strides and picking up our life one day at a time,” Jones said. In spite of multiple unfortunate incidents, Jones maintains her faith and positive
attitude, grateful for things like the kitchen table and eight chairs that mean her family can gather for holiday meals and everyday time together. “Now we’re able to be at my house, putting together a puzzle,” Jones said. She said the furniture has helped her and her family to heal emotionally as well as physically. “It gives us a place to come together comfortably,” Jones said. Boyle said that, in 2022 alone, the Furniture Bank provided 2,300 families with almost 19,000 pieces of furniture, valued at a total of more than $1 million. “There’s a huge need for what we do,” Boyle said. “(We supply) the basics that will get a family off the floor and enable them to live with some semblance of dignity.” To donate or for more information, visit www.furniture-bank.org or call (248) 332-1300.

things to do, and he’s in hyperdrive. And in the 2022 year and into the 2023 year, he’s really stood out.” Groth joined the department in May 1996 and was previously named Firefighter of the Year in 2004 and 2011. “If there’s one thing I’m really realizing at this stage of my career ... I am really just truly a reflection of the people around me,” Groth said to fellow firefighters in attendance. “You can’t be there for 26 years and still be happy at a place unless the guys and the people around you are positive, doing a good thing (and) doing the right thing by the township, by each other (and) by the residents. I wouldn’t be here if that wasn’t happening, so I can honestly say I am truly a reflection of everybody around me at that station who drive me to come in every morning, so I greatly appreciate you guys.” The board handled other items related to the Fire Department as well, purchasing three $20,631 thermal imaging cameras for use on squad vehicles and fixing brake issues on one of the department’s fire trucks.
Waterfront fencing change
On March 13, the board introduced a change to waterfront fencing requirements for single-family residences. The ordinance has been expanded to include walls, hedgerows and “protective barriers,” all of which cannot exceed 2 feet in height when located within 30 feet of the sea wall. These barriers must be decorative and non-obscuring. A long discussion ensued when Clerk Adam Wit took issue with vinyl-coated and galvanized chain link fences being listed as “decorative,” ultimately leading to an amendment to have those removed from decorative compliance.
41B District Court bond payment
The board also approved paying the township’s share of the 41B District Court construction bond debt at about $82,000. Township Supervisor Ken Verkest expressed displeasure with the dwindling surplus paybacks from the court but said he believes the court’s funding source will change from the communities it serves to the state in the coming years.

When the caller was going through his wallet to give his acquaintance some money, the acquaintance allegedly pulled out a gun and demanded that the caller give him all the money he had on him. The caller then gave the acquaintance all his money, at which point the acquaintance fled the area. The detective bureau was investigating this incident.

When officers arrived, they were met with an employee who said he arrived at work and discovered the glass on the back door had been smashed. The owner was on the phone with the employee and said he pulled up a video showing two men entering the business at 6:19 a.m. They reportedly stayed for around 10 seconds before fleeing the scene. The adjacent building also had a window smashed, but the suspects couldn’t get through because it was reinforced with plywood. An employee from that business said the owner would arrive later that day and could get the video footage.

Resident is victim of check fraud
GROSSE POINTE FARMS — A Grosse Pointe Farms woman filed a report with police Feb. 23 after someone fraudulently cashed her check for almost $17,000 for a home generator. The woman told police she mailed the check Jan. 25 to a business’s address in Novi, but the check came back to her. When the woman called the company, she spoke with a male employee with whom she had had previous positive dealings who gave her a different Novi address to send the check to, telling her the business had moved. The woman put the check back in the mail
either Feb. 7 or 8 but realized something had gone wrong when someone else from the company called her to ask her about her payment. The victim learned from her bank that the check had been cashed and endorsed with the signature of someone who was neither the company owner nor the person with whom the woman had spoken on the phone. The suspect could be facing a charge of forgery of checks, police said. The investigation was ongoing.

SHE TOOK A STAND BY KEEPING HER SEAT METRO DETROIT — “The Rebellious Life of Mrs. Rosa Parks”
is a film about Parks’ involvement in the civil rights movement, based on the bestselling biography by Jeanne Theoharis of the same title. It was recently screened at the Detroit Institute of Arts to a sold-out audience. “For years, the significance of her moment on the bus was minimized by groups claiming that she was simply tired that day, and just wanted to sit down,” said Elliot Wilhelm, the Detroit Film Theater’s curator of film. “Instead, the documentary demonstrates — factually and eloquently — that Rosa Parks was fully aware of the leadership, strength and humanity that moment embodied, and she continued to demonstrate that dedication to justice, equality and decency for the remainder of her life.” The film was followed by two panel discussions with the film’s executive producer, Soledad O’Brien; Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson; American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten; the film’s directors, Yoruba Richen and Johanna Hamilton; and Rosa Parks’ grandnephew, Lonnie McCauley. The screening was co-presented by Soledad O’Brien Productions, the American Federation of Teachers, The League, Freep Film Festival, and Friends of the Detroit Film Theatre.

Macomb Art Institute Authority Chair and Treasurer/Secretary of Macomb Cultural & Economic Partnership Ed Bruley said, “We were thankful we could bring 48 people to see the film in the evening, thanks to the DIA and the millage.” The Detroit Institute of Arts millage was on the ballot in March of 2020 and asked voters in Macomb, Oakland and Wayne counties to renew the previous 10-year millage that provided free admission, transportation to the museum and other services to residents in the tricounty area.
