People think they know the story of Detroit. But what other stories might we hear if the city and its water spoke for themselves? Tune in to the Detroit River Stories Podcast to find out. This podcast is just one small part of the University of Michigan’s Detroit River Story Lab, an interdisciplinary, grant-funded initiative that partners with regional organizations to reconnect communities with the river and its stories. Through collaborative research, education, and engagement projects, our partnerships amplify marginalized voices and foreground the role of the river and its shores as sites of connection, stewardship, and healing.

episode "A little hard to handle" : Sarah Elizabeth Ray and the Fight for Childhood and Play in Detroit cover

"A little hard to handle" : Sarah Elizabeth Ray and the Fight for Childhood and Play in Detroit

Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1932291/open_sms] In this episode, Bailey Flannery and Desiree Cooper discuss how Cooper's decision to "marry Detroit" (by way of marrying a Detroiter) has irrevocably shaped her as a creative and person. This includes her long journalistic career at Detroit Free Press, which led her to eventually interviewing and documenting the life and legacy of Sarah Elizabeth Ray (also known as Lizz Haskell), one of Detroit's long-forgotten Civil Rights leaders.  This conversation covers:   * Cooper and Ray's parallel journeys from the South to Detroit, and how Cooper fell in love with Detroit's "mystique" and "swagger." * The centrality of play and leisure to the civil rights movement, including Ray's own case, which was based on her forced removal from the Bob-Lo boat SS Columbia. (Spoiler: She took her case all the way to the US Supreme Court--and won.) * Ray's lesser-known second act, which centered on protecting childhood through Action House.  * Futures currently realized and in jeopardy along the Detroit River. * Why the Detroit River is laughing at us, and why we should laugh with it.

Little Port, Big Vision : Making Waves in Communities, Climate, and Commerce on the Great Lakes

Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1932291/open_sms] In this episode, Bailey Flannery sits down with Captain Paul Lamarre III to discuss the winding life path that has led him to become the Executive Director of the historic freighter and museum ship the SS Col. James M. Schoonmaker; the Director of the Port of Monroe; a member of the Board of Directors for the National Museum of the Great Lakes; the President of the American Great Lakes Port Association; and, most importantly, a man who does not waste a single moment and a son who makes his dad proud. Their conversation touches on:  * Paul's childhood on (in) the Detroit River and the long Lamarre family legacy of captaining on the Great Lakes. * How a cancer diagnosis in his twenties brought Paul back to these waterways, inspiring his life's work of championing the histories and futures of the Great Lakes maritime industry. * Relationship-centered leadership and cultural change on the Great Lakes. * How the maritime industry is embracing the responsibility and opportunity of environmental stewardship. * The profound roles small ports like the Port of Monroe are playing in supporting green infrastructure and local economies, creating a "better quality of life and community that surround the waterway." * The Sophia Loren of tugboats.

Black Power (Boating) in the Motor City

Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1932291/open_sms] Dr. Juanita Lyons and Steven Johnson recount how their father, Albert Johnson, founded the Motor City Yacht Club in 1960s Detroit to help foster a black power boating community when other local yacht clubs were exclusively white. Juanita and Steven also share memories of their childhood spent boating, swimming, fishing--living, really, on the Detroit River and the Great Lakes, as well as how this shaped their passionate adulthood relationships with these bodies of water. They also speak to the dramatic changes they have witnessed in boating culture and policing throughout the years (including "river rage"), ultimately calling us to respect and love the water and others who frequent it.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
