Why Detroit's Olympic Bids Failed
Manage episode 432009150 series 2937923
One of the Detroit's Olympic bids unfolded right in 1963 - right alongside the Civil Rights Movement. While one group saw an opportunity to brandish the city's glory, another feared an oversight of racial oppression and unrest. Detroit's Olympic Uprising, a new documentary from Detroit filmmaker Aaron Schillinger, documents what happened when the two groups collided.
Detroit's Olympic Uprising will air on FOX 2 News on Saturday, August 3, at 2 p.m. Hear April Baer's conversation with Schillinger and two University of Michigan professors who offered their expertise for the film on the Stateside Podcast.
GUESTS ON THIS EPISODE:
Aaron Schillinger, Detroit filmmaker
Stefan Szymanski, Professor of Sport Management at the University of Michigan
Silke-Maria Weineck, Professor of German Studies and Comparative Literature at the University of Michigan
