On Hand

Five Years After Michigan’s Dam Disaster


Listen Later

Malcolm X would have turned 100 years old today. We revisit a series of conversations about why Americans so often overlook Malcolm X when it comes to Black History Month celebrations and formal education spaces. 

GUEST:

  • Ven Johnson, the attorney representing flood victims in Gladwin, Midland, and Saginaw counties, is involved in a lawsuit accusing the state of intentionally delaying the legal process and avoiding accountability.

Also heard on this episode: 

  • Mid-Michigan dam restorations are picking back up, with residents to pay nearly $218M  from WCMU Public Media reporter Teresa Homsi.
