On the next American Black Journal, Stephen has an in-depth conversation with Detroit Public Schools Community District Superintendent Dr. Nikolai Vitti about the district’s reopening plans this fall in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. They talk about COVID health protocols that will be in place for students, teachers and staff.

And, Dr. Vitti outlines how $1.2 billion in federal funding is being used to get students back in the classroom safely for the new school year.

Plus, we’ll take you to a special commemoration for the predominantly African American neighborhood in Detroit known as Black Bottom.
