Stateside: Wednesday, Feb. 28, 2024

On today's Stateside, we broke down the results of Tuesday's primary election. Then, the co-founders of a forthcoming birth center in Detroit discussed the kind of care and support they hope to provide Black women in the community. Plus, we looked back on the story of a publisher and civil rights activist who fought to ensure equitable hiring practices for Black Detroiters.
