Best local magazine

Your publication is one of the best local magazines I have ever read. Your reporters/writers are excellent and I say this having reporter friends who worked for the Free Press and Detroit News.

I am an Independent who leans Democratic. We certainly live in angry,volatile times, but I am amazed at the vitriol by some of our more conservative residents. It appears that many of these folks fear the “browning” of America, but not all. I would ask those who may have this concern to look back at their parents, grand/great grandparents and ask where they immigrated from.

The fear of government, indulging in maddening social media disinformation certainly contribute to these attitudes. Perhaps we all should take a refresher civics class.

Keep with your objective reporting in spite  of this anger. Great job.
