Grace Keros, proprietor of American Coney Island will
donate Monday’s lunch receipts to the homeless. She
says downtown Detroit is a ghost village, except

about. Who helps them? They carry disease, too. The
tin cup has run dry.
Real Stories from Real People
A deputy from the Wayne County jail. It’s an

confirmed there and yet there isn’t even enough toilet
paper to clean your ass, much less personal
protection gear.

crews have none. The ER IS UNDERSTAFFED and the
for-profit hospital is endangering the public.
“I wouldn’t bring my dog here,” she says.
