JETSONS HAS BEEN WAITING A VERY
LONG TIME FOR THIS. MALONEY
HEADS TO CITY AIRPORT TO SEE A
PROTOTYPE IN ACTION. YOU’RE
GOING TO SEE HOW THAT GOES
COMING UP IN ABOUT AN HOUR. THE
BIDEN MINISTRATIONS JUST
DELIVERED A BIG INVESTMENT TO
RECONNECT HISTORIC BLACK
NEIGHBORHOODS IN DETROIT, THE
STATE WILL RECEIVE A GRANT OF
MORE THAN $100 MILLION. THAT
MONEY GOES TOWARD PLANTS. TO
REPLACE THE 3 75 FREEWAY WITH A
STREET LEVEL BOULEVARD. CITY
LEADERS SAY THE GOAL IS TO
RECONNECT THE AREAS THAT WERE
ONCE PREDOMINANTLY BLACK
NEIGHBORHOODS KNOWN AS BLACK
BOTTOM AND PARADISE VALLEY. THEY
WERE LOST. WHEN THE FREEWAY WAS
BUILT. THE HIGHWAY REMOVAL COULD
BEGIN IN SOMETIME IN 2025. WELL
THERE IS REALLY NOTHING TO
COMPLAIN ABOUT. IN TODAY’S FIRST
FORECAST. WE’VE SEEN A FEW
REALLY COMFORTABLE DAYS NOW IN A
ROW. KIM ADAMS IS HERE TO SHOW
US WHERE THINGS STAND RIGHT NOW.
HI, KIM. WELL IT IS COOL OUT
THERE COMPARED TO WHERE IT WAS
YESTERDAY. IT’S ONLY 69 IN MOUNT
CLEMENS 74 AT CITY AIRPORT, BUT
VERY PLEASANT, LOW HUMIDITY. I
MEAN, THESE ARE REALLY JUST
BEAUTIFUL DAYS FOR US. BUT IT IS
GOING TO WARM UP CONSIDERABLY AS
WE LOOK OUT TO THE WEST. IT’S 87
RIGHT NOW. IN MINNEAPOLIS, 80 IN
MILWAUKEE, ALL THAT HEAT IS
HEADED INTO OUR BACKYARD FOR THE
WEEKEND. TAKE A LOOK AT THE 24
HOUR TEMPERATURE CHANGE ITS 11
DEGREES COOLER TODAY THAN IT WAS
YESTERDAY. BUT THAT’S NOT GOING
TO LAST LONG. WE WARM UP INTO
THE MID EIGHTIES FOR THE
WEEKEND. I’LL HAVE YOUR COMPLETE
FORECAST IN JUST A FEW MINUTES.
ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. KIM
PRESIDENT BIDEN, CELEBRATING A
TENTATIVE DEAL THAT JUST AVERTED
A POSSIBLE RAILROAD STRIKE THAT
COULD HAVE FURTHER DERAILED THE
U. S ECONOMY A NIGHT OF FRANTIC
NEGOTIATIONS FINALLY PAID OFF
DEVIN SCILLIAN IN THE NEWSROOM.
NOW WITH A LOOK AT WHAT TURNED
THE TIDE DEVIN SCILLIAN THE
PRESSURE AS FRIDAY’S DEADLINE
WAS FAST APPROACHING, THE
PRESIDENT WAS LEANING ON THE
RAILROADS AND THE UNIONS TO MAKE
A DEAL. WITH MIDTERMS
APPROACHING, IT COULD NOT AFFORD
ANOTHER BIG BLOW TO THE ECONOMY
THAT RELIES SO HEAVILY ON TRAINS
TO MOVE SO MANY OF OUR GOODS AND
RAW MATERIALS. THIS DEAL GIVES
UNION MEMBERS AND IMMEDIATE 14%
PAY RAISE DATING BACK TO 2020,
SO RETROACTIVE RAISES CONTINUE
DURING THE COMING OVER THE NEXT
FIVE YEARS, TOTALING 24, BUT THE
BIG CONCESSION GIVES WORKERS THE
ABILITY TO TAKE UNPAID DAYS OFF
FOR DOCTOR’S APPOINTMENTS AND
MEDICAL CARE. PREVIOUSLY WORKERS
WOULD LOSE POINTS UNDER THE
RAILROAD STRICT ATTENDANCE RULES
. UNION LEADERS SAID THE DEAL
SETS A PRECEDENT THAT THEY WILL
ALSO BE ABLE TO NEGOTIATE OVER
THESE KIND OF RULES IN THE
FUTURE. PRESIDENT SAYS IT IS A
CHANGE WORKERS DESERVE DURING
THESE EARLY DARK ON CERTAIN DAYS
OF THE PANDEMIC. THEY SHOWED UP.
SO EVERY AMERICAN COULD KEEP
GOING. THEY WORKED TIRELESSLY
THROUGH THE PANDEMIC TO ENSURE
THAT FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES
GOT DELIVERIES THEY NEEDED
DURING THESE DIFFICULT FEW YEARS
THEY EARNED AND DESERVE THESE
BENEFITS. AND THIS IS A GREAT
DEAL FOR BOTH SIDES. IN MY VIEW
, IT’S TENTATIVE DEAL STILL
NEEDS TO GO TO UNION MEMBERS FOR
RATIFICATION. BUT THERE IS A
COOLING OFF PERIOD WHICH WOULD
PREVENT ANY IMMEDIATE SHUTDOWNS
OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL WEEKS AND
TRACK NOW WORKING TO RESTORE
PASSENGER SERVICES THAT HAD BEEN
PUT ON HOLD BECAUSE THE TRAINS
USED THE SAME TRACKS, OF COURSE
STRIKE COULD HAVE COST THE U. S
ECONOMY. IT’S ESTIMATED
SOMEWHERE AROUND $2 BILLION A
DAY. SO A LOT OF PEOPLE FEELING
AN AWFUL LOT OF RELIEF TODAY,
SANDRA BACK TO YOU. RELIEF
INDEED. ALRIGHT THANK YOU.
DEVIN. BRITAIN’S LONG GOODBYE TO
QUEEN ELIZABETH CONTINUES TO
BRING THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE TO
WESTMINSTER HALL, WHERE SHE’LL
LIE IN STATE FOR ANOTHER THREE
DAYS, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN LINING UP
AROUND THE CLOCK TO GET A
GLIMPSE OF HER COFFIN AND SAY
THEIR OWN PERSONAL FAREWELL TO
THE QUEEN WHO RULED FOR MORE
THAN 70 YEARS. MANY PEOPLE ARE
VERY DETERMINED TO SAY GOODBYE.
ONE WOMAN ARRIVED AFTER MIDNIGHT
AND WAITED ALL THROUGH THE
NIGHT. THIS WAS JUST A COMPLETE
AND TOTAL TO BE ABLE TO DO THIS
AND SHE SAID, IT’S A PART OF
HISTORY. WE’RE NEVER GOING TO
HAVE THIS AGAIN, AND SHE’S JUST
BEEN SUCH A ROCK AND AN
INSPIRATION TO EVERYBODY ACROSS
THE WHOLE WORLD AND FOR ME TO BE
ABLE TO DO THIS FOR MYSELF. AND
FOR HER, THERE’S NO WORDS THAT
CAN EXPLAIN IT. IT’S JUST
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. MEANTIME
WILLIAM AND KATE, THE NEW PRINCE
AND PRINCESS OF WALES, GREETED A
LARGE CROWD OF MOURNERS AT THE
ROYAL ESTATE ABOUT 108 MILES
NORTH OF LONDON. THEY DID SPEND
SOME TIME THEY’RE LOOKING AT THE
FLOWERS, THE GIFTS AND ALL OF
THE MESSAGES OF SUPPORT AND OUR
VERY OWN. KIMBERLY GILL IS
HEADED TO LONDON TO COVER THE
QUEEN’S FUNERAL ON MONDAY. KIM
SPECIAL REPORTS START TOMORROW.
RIGHT HERE ON LOCAL 4 LOCAL 4
PLUS AND CLICKONDETROIT’S DOT
COM. WE’RE GOING TO TAKE YOU TO
LONDON STARTING TOMORROW. POWS
HAVE BEEN AROUND NOW FOR
CENTURIES, AND THIS WEEKEND.
ANYONE WHO ENJOYS REALITY SHOWS
LIKE MAYBE AMERICA’S GOT TALENT
OR DANCING WITH MYSELF, MIGHT
WANT TO HEAD OVER TO HINES PARK
FOR A CULTURAL EXPERIENCE. PAULA
TUTMAN IS AT THE SPOT WHERE
COMPETITION POW WILL TAKE PLACE
IN FOLLOWING THE EXCITEMENT IS
ALREADY BUILDING. YOU KNOW WHAT
IT REALLY IS, AS YOU CAN SEE,
THE TENTS HAVE ALREADY GONE UP.
AND AT THIS VERY MOMENT, YOU
ACTUALLY HAVE MEMBERS OF TRIBAL
ORGANIZATIONS WHO ARE GETTING
READY TO TRAVEL TO THIS AREA
FROM DIFFERENT STATES AS WELL AS
ACROSS THE BORDER AND ONTARIO
AND SASKATCHEWAN TO GET THEIR
PERFORMANCE ON. DIFFERENT TRIBES
. DIFFERENT DANCE STYLES,
DIFFERENT STORIES TOLD BY THEIR
BODIES AND THE WAY THEY MOVE,
HINES PARK BECOMES THE PLACE
WHERE FIRST NATIONS PEOPLE TO
TELL THEIR STORY TO ALL WHO WANT
TO LISTEN AND SEE. PEOPLE AREN’T
VERY AWARE OF WHAT POWERS ARE.
IT IS NATIVE GATHERING WHERE WE
ALL GET TOGETHER AND WE VISIT
WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS. THERE
ARE DIFFERENT KINDS OF POWS.
THIS ONE IS CALLED A COMPETITION
POW PUT ON BY THE NORTH AMERICAN
INDIAN. CREATION OF DETROIT.
MUCH LIKE ANY SINGING
COMPETITION, DIFFERENT AGE
GROUPS AND STYLES WILL TAKE
CENTER STAGE TO SHOW WHO DOES IT
BEST. IT WAS JUST EXCITING TO
HEAR THE DRUMS AND I THINK IT
GAVE ME A SENSE OF PRIDE DANCE
TELLS AN IMPORTANT STORY.
HARVEST HUNTING NATURE WAR
BOUNTY FAMILY. THE DANCES ARE
THE WORDS THE DRUMS, THE SONGS
ALSO ON SITE, SUPERSTAR,
DRUMMERS, EAGLE FLIGHT AND
RIBBON TOWN, FOR INSTANCE, THERE
IS THE WOMAN’S FANCY SHAWL.
BASICALLY IT IS BASICALLY WHEN
THEY’RE DANCING MOVEMENTS AND
RHYTHMS ARE MIMICKING LIKE THAT
OF A BUTTERFLY BUTTERFLY WOULD
BE DANCING THROUGHOUT THE SCOTT.
TRADITIONAL DANCERS WILL BE, UM,
EXPLAINING THEY’LL BE TELLING
THEIR STORY OF WHEN THEY WERE
OUT HUNTING OR WHEN THEY WERE IN
BATTLE THE VICTORY OF THE BATTLE
AS WELL TO INTERPRETING AS WELL
TOO, AS THEY’RE DANCING, BUT NON
NATIVES ARE ALSO INVITED TO COME
, LEARN AND EVEN PARTICIPATE IN
SOME EVENTS. IT’S SO IMPORTANT
FOR NON NATIVE PEOPLE TO KNOW
THAT WE’RE STILL HERE BECAUSE A
LOT OF PEOPLE DON’T THINK
THERE’S REAL INDIANS HAVE SPOKEN
AT SCHOOLS. PEOPLE ARE SHOCKED
TO KNOW THAT THERE’S A NEED OF
PEOPLE. YOU’RE NOT AROUND STILL
AND THERE WERE STILL PRACTICING
OUR CULTURE IN GENERAL
THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY ARE
ALWAYS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC OF NON
NATIVES WHO WANT TO COME AND
JUST EXPERIENCED NATIVE CULTURE
WITNESS NATIVE CULTURE IN
GENERAL. THAT WAY THEY CAN SEE
SOMETHING EXTREMELY BEAUTIFUL.
THEY CAN GET A LITTLE BIT OF
EDUCATION ON WHAT THEY’RE SEEING
AS WELL, TOO. AND ALSO IF THERE
IS ANY STIGMAS AND STEREOTYPES
THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE HAD IN
THEIR HEADS, WHETHER THEY’RE
POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE. OR THEY
JUST DIDN’T KNOW. IN GENERAL.
THOSE WILL BE CORRECTED. OKAY SO
HERE ARE THE PROTECTS HINES PARK
IS PRETTY BIG FOR THE NANKING
MILLS AREA. ALSO LOOK FOR THE
TENTS SATURDAY ONLY BETWEEN ONE
AND FIVE. PROBABLY WANT TO GET
HERE A LITTLE BIT EARLIER, SO
YOU CAN FIND PARKING AND SANDRA
, THE PRICE IS RIGHT. IT IS FREE
TO THE PUBLIC. PERFECT ALRIGHT.
