A whale of an opinion // Detroit Library discontent // Are leaders listening?

Norris Howard is in the co-host seat.

01:01 - Michiganders should be ready for fall

02:04 - The "Whaling Wall" on the Broderick facing Comerica Park in downtown Detroit is beloved by some online. As again, it's "Whale discourse" season with a new ad covering the mural. But is it by the city? Some very real talk about the whales, art, and some ideas to make you think about representation and how it's thought about by other people.

10:15 - Lots of feedback, we go through some.

11:33 - A commenter talks about the difference between a big city and Detroit as they prepare to move to Detroit

14:11 - A listener from Pingree Park shares concerns about the Detroit Library system. It turns out a lot of people share after last week's episode. We discuss it and how we got here - and possible better ways of doing it regionally.

25:44 - Then we get into continued I-375 concerns from the community. Many whole live there seem to feel they were just not heard about the plan. And a recent Outlier article stated that "MDOT is unlikely to modify the number of lanes and that the overall design will only see changes on the margins." https://outliermedia.org/i375-detroit-freeway-redesign-removal/
