Show Notes
Today's show is in three parts.
First, some updates around town.
We've lost Tip Toe Shoe Repair for now due to a fire, but Lafayette Coney Island kept serving. The Free Press building as new life as apartments. And construction has begun on the new Baker college building in downtown Royal Oak.
Then, former first lady Michelle Obama is collaborating with a Detroit native and founder of The Lip Bar, Melissa Butler. Their goal? To increase voter registration, get voters to the polls, and change the culture around voting. Melissa joins me to talk about it.
And, Janet Tyler from TEDxDetroit previews the virtual event September 30 that is focused on ideas worth spreading. And, it's free.
