Video tour of city set at recreation center

There will be a one-time opportunity to take the Inktown Tour without leaving the comfort of the air-conditioned Inkster Recreation Center beginning at 6 p.m. tomorrow, Friday, Aug. 4. 

Organizers said both refreshments and knowledge will be served at the free event, sponsored by members of We Rise with help from the Community Up Project and Project We Hope, Dream, and Believe. The indoor tour is designed for those who are not physically able to walk the pedestrian tour of the community. 

Organizers said this is a rare opportunity which will include information about the history of the city along with the present and future. 

“Inkster is at the center of American history and the heart of hub of Black history. Let's keep that legacy alive and take it forward,” organizers said.
