Black-owned businesses in Detroit have played a pivotal role throughout the city's history. To address the challenges faced by these businesses in Detroit, The Institute of Legacy Preservation (ILP) was established. The primary goal of ILP, under the leadership of president and CEO Lauren Stovall (pictured), is to support and ensure the sustainability of Black-owned legacy businesses that have been operating for 25 years or more. ILP strives to establish a #SustainableEcosystem for these businesses by providing them with resources, education, and opportunities for growth. The organization's efforts not only contribute to the preservation of the cultural heritage of the Black community in Detroit, but also stimulate the local economy and create #SustainableBusiness opportunities.

Hopefully the plan is figuring out how to solve our existing problems in town, as well as around our schools like damaged streets, speeding in our school zones, & making it safer for all students who walk to school before we continue to keep building apartments/houses. Every morning when I drop my kiddos off at school, I can’t help but to be annoyed at the fact that so many people are such in a rush, they don’t take in regard for any student that may be walking to school. Our “small” city is growing. No doubt about that. But when the speed limit in the school zone is 25 and you have people going 35 constantly, it’s entirely aggravating. There’s never any police presence overseeing. Not to mention, the “back roads” which my main way to and from home, is constantly getting congested now due to adding more apartments/ houses and now a LAGOON. Peoples land/ranches have been bought out and our city can’t even fix the problems we have now. Or what about the fact that the streets are all uneven beyond what you expect. If you’re not going 10, you might misalign your vehicles. No speed limit signs posted so people go whatever speed they want to, and don’t even get me started on 380! It is the worst hwy going through town ever!! It’s dangerous to say the least. Two lanes each way, and constant accidents every day. Something’s gotta give. I hope she has solutions to move in the right direction.

The best people mean the best results.
