Detroit's Birwood Wall receives Michigan Historical Marker
A Michigan historical marker has been installed at the site of the Birwood Wall, which at one time stood as a symbol of racism and housing segregation in Detroit. The wall has since been painted to symbolize the resilience and resolve of African Americans in the area. One Detroit was there for the unveiling of the historical marker to learn more about efforts to move forward.
