Detroit’s Public Radio Station, WDET, invites metro-Detroiters to read Matthew Desmond’s Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City this summer.
Stephen Henderson and the Detroit Today team will host a series of on-air discussions about eviction and housing insecurity in southeast Michigan throughout the summer, as well as moderating discussions on a new “Detroit Today Summer Book Club“ Facebook page beginning this week.
