Detroit's vintage radio brand, Kamala thoughts, and Insurance inequities
Manage episode 430406501 series 1412618
Welcome back to your Daily Detroit, your all-local podcast sharing what to know and where to go in Southeast Michigan.
First, a shout-out to Mickey Lyons, who recently brought us a 1930s Detrola tabletop radio. Detroit has a rich history of manufacturing beyond cars, including radios for the working person. This beautiful piece now has a special place in our studio. We talk a little about the fascinating history of Detroit's manufacturing legacy and how it has shaped the city's identity beyond the automotive industry.
Everyone on the team is getting their chance at reactions to the national presidential news. Fletcher and I discuss the implications for Detroit and Michigan, given Biden's past support for the area. We explore how this decision might affect local policies, federal support, and the political landscape in Michigan.
Fletcher shares his perspective, noting the significance of Kamala Harris's candidacy as the first African American and Asian American woman major presidential candidate. He emphasizes the importance of broader demographic support for her campaign.
We also touch on the excitement within his community, particularly among members of sororities and fraternities like the AKA, to which Kamala Harris belongs. This endorsement has sparked a wave of enthusiasm and pride, and we explore the cultural and social impact of her candidacy on these communities.
And finally, we discuss a piece by Outlier Media, look at auto insurance reform and how it hasn't really mean savings for cities like Detroit and communities of color. Have a read here: https://outliermedia.org/detroit-car-insurance-higher-rates-reform/
