Help us tell the REAL story in Southwest Detroit!

February 17, 2012

Southwest Detroit usually gets two bad choices with the media: be ignored or terribly misrepresented.

Southwest Detroit is a large, tight-knit community. The neighborhood is known for its long-standing and vibrant Hispanic community, but Southwest is home to over 30 different ethnic groups. This international border community has a lot to teach us about where Metro Detroit is heading in the coming years. We are collaborating with the residents of Southwest Detroit to unearth and highlight the REAL stories of this neighborhood.

WDET is launching a Spot.us campaign to tell these stories. When we successfully complete this campaign, we’ll hire people from Southwest Detroit as freelancers to work side-by-side with us so we can produce a dynamic multi-media series that gives a prismatic view of this complex and vibrant community.
