Today on Stateside, two Michigan Public reporters spoke to us about the increasing number of immigrants in detention who are filing habeus corpus lawsuits—which assert a detainee's right to have the legality of their detention reviewed by a court—to secure release.

Then, a Michigan archivist shared some Isle Royale history in honor of the 95th anniversary of the legislation that led to the island's designation as a national park.

GUESTS ON TODAY’S SHOW:
