Reflecting On Our "On The Table" Experiences Discussing Detroit

I know that a discussion about a discussion can be kind of meta, but the Community Foundation of Southeast Michigan put together a very interesting series of conversations across the region about youth.

"On The Table" is a project bringing 400 conversations together, over meals, across the seven county Detroit area.

We attended three of them. Shianne at Noble Elementary/Middle, Jer at Bamboo Detroit, and Sven at the Detroit Boxing Gym.

So we initially were going to do a short roundup with some of the Daily team - Jer, Shianne and Sven - but it turned into a half-hour wide-ranging discussion of issues facing the city and youth, and some of the real challenges that are out there.

Apologies since is longer than our usual episode, but we hope you enjoy it.
