A few years ago, Mary Barra and we talked at length about GM's 100-year manufacturing presence in Detroit and our city's support for GM over the past century. Ultimately, Mary and GM decided to transform this 40-year old plant into Factory Zero. https://t.co/jzwemN8CEG — PolitiTweet.org

Today, on my behalf, Deputy Mayor Conrad Mallett presented Lt. Col. Alexander Jefferson with our city's highest honor: The Key to the City. There is no one more deserving of this honor than someone who fought against racism at home so he could preserve freedom around the world. https://t.co/gpwZ3RS9x0 — PolitiTweet.org

In celebration of his 100th birthday, the City of Detroit has rededicated that field in Rouge Park in his honor, where soon there will stand a new public plaza with his statue for future generations to learn of his contributions, thanks to the efforts of @rochelleriley . — PolitiTweet.org

As a young man he sought out an opportunity to fight for his country in WWII and served as a Tuskegee Airman with the Red Tails, helping to secure victory for the Allies. After retiring at a Lieutenant Colonel in 1969, Mr. Jefferson returned home to Detroit. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, a true Detroit hero received a fitting tribute. Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Jefferson is one of most remarkable men to have served our city and our country. Born and raised in Detroit, he grew up flying model airplanes on a field in Rouge Park. https://t.co/Xz6UVMqGyM — PolitiTweet.org

Recently, we announced we'll be building a new $5 million state-of-the-art facility for Detroit Animal Care and Control. To design it, the city chose Beverley Hannah Jones. As our city revitalizes, this is another example of Detroiters rebuilding Detroit. https://t.co/ZsEWjB4ZV9 — PolitiTweet.org

And Bishop Sheard wasn’t just Detroit’s bishop. He represented Detroit around the world with dignity and respect as Chair of the Worldwide Council of Bishops. It was one of my happiest moments as mayor when I presented the Key to the City to Bishop Sheard and his son in July. — PolitiTweet.org

Bishop John Sheard was a giant in our city, not only in the religious realm, but also in his service to those most in need. I’ll never forget how in 2014 when hundreds of parks had been closed by the emergency manager, he stood up, so our kids would have safe places to play. https://t.co/IbBvDLQn6Q — PolitiTweet.org

Freedom is never guaranteed – it’s something that must be protected. Today we honor the brave veterans, both men and women, who have served our country, as well as those in active service - our future veterans - still protecting and preserving our way of life. https://t.co/ijPamY9GIW — PolitiTweet.org

It's for neighborhoods like Mapleridge that we pushed so hard for Proposal N one year ago, which at last gives us the opportunity to bring demolition and preservation into areas of the city federal funding wouldn't allow.

Today Kim Marble was finally able to say goodbye to the two vacant houses on each side of her home. In Mapleridge, we have 221 Prop N funded demolitions planned and over 100 homes planned for stabilizing for sale and renovation, so new families can move into the neighborhood. https://t.co/aQ7FL3G0al — PolitiTweet.org

Without her high school diploma, India Jackson was stuck in low paying jobs, trying to raise a family. Then she heard about our Learn to Earn program, which pays Detroiters up to $200 per week to get their diploma or GED. https://t.co/eZRDSGNg3H — PolitiTweet.org

He led the redesign of the former Oriole Theater into what became the New Bethel Baptist Church, where Aretha Franklin grew up. That project was the first in the city to use an all-Black team of architects and contractors, as well as financing from the African-American community. https://t.co/XmBrNmwapX — PolitiTweet.org

Once he opened the door, he made sure he left it open for other African Americans in his field to follow him. Mr. Johnson not only was a trailblazer, but he also left behind an incredible architectural legacy in Detroit. — PolitiTweet.org

Today we lost a pioneer in our city. Nathan Johnson broke down barriers to establish himself as one of the nation’s leading Black architects. When discrimination left him struggling to find opportunity, he created his own. https://t.co/4EMk56zPs0 — PolitiTweet.org
