PANEL DISCUSSION: “BLACK BOTTOM & I-375: PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE”

**Free with Detroit Historical Museum admission! **Check out our brand-new
exhibit, “In the Neighborhood.” Stay for this timely panel discussion on Black
Bottom’s past, present, and future.

Black Bottom was a thriving Black neighborhood when it was torn down to create
a freeway in the name of “urban renewal.” Sixty years later, I-375 is slated
to become grade level, presenting an opportunity for thirty-one acres of new
development where Black Bottom once stood. What will that new development look
like, who will benefit, can we repair past harms, and who decides and how?

**Panelists include Jamon Jordan** (City of Detroit Official Historian),
**Adena Hill** (Kresge Foundation’s Detroit Program), and a **Downtown Detroit
Partnership** representative. **Moderated by New Detroit COO Jodee Fishman
Raines**.

Organized by: Jewish Historical Society of Michigan
