On the next American Black Journal,

Legendary Detroit entertainer Jackie Wilson receives a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Stephen talks with Wilson’s daughter, Brenda Wilson, and cousin Thelma Stubbs-Mitchell about the late singer who earned the nickname “Mr. Excitement.” Plus, the Detroit Sports Zone welcomes a new class of inductees into its High School Hall of Fame. We’ll talk about this year’s honorees who are recognized for being outstanding athletes who attended Detroit Public High Schools or for making major contributions to athletics.
