Stateside: Friday, April 7, 2023

This week, one year ago, Patrick Lyoya, a young Congolese immigrant, was fatally shot by a Grand Rapids police officer. An advocate-turned-city leader in Grand Rapids joins Stateside to share what changes she wants to see in the city. Plus, we look back on the history of La Choy, a hundred-year-old Asian-American food brand, as the city of Detroit begins demolition on one of its factories.
