DPTV Expands Coverage of ‘One Detroit’

Through renewed support for community journalism from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, ongoing viewer support, as well as DPTV’s collaboration with The Detroit Journalism Cooperative (DJC), One Detroit will continue the work it started in 2016 of creating in-depth multiplatform reporting that tells the real story of Detroit post-bankruptcy focused on Neighborhoods, Education, Equity and Inclusivity, as well as Power and Identity—all in an effort to understand and report on the current state of the city and its residents and the local and regional impact of the revitalization efforts.
