Supporting Pastor Kinloch: A Mayor for Every Block in Detroit
Members have voiced their support for Pastor Kinloch, advocating for a mayor committed to representing all of Detroit's neighborhoods. Concerns have been raised regarding the historical emphasis on downtown development, where there has been a significant focus on projects benefiting developers and wealthy individuals, leaving many residents feeling neglected.
A key aspect of Pastor Kinloch's platform is his alignment with UAW members, both during strikes and within the community. His advocacy centers on ensuring that neglected neighborhoods receive attention and resources. The campaign highlights the importance of affordable housing, accessible to Detroit residents, and the creation of sustainable jobs to support families. Additionally, it emphasizes inclusion, aiming to give a voice to those historically excluded from decision-making.
This campaign extends beyond mere electoral success. UAW members have engaged in rigorous leadership training and participated actively in a grassroots, worker-driven campaign. Their efforts included knocking on thousands of doors, making numerous phone calls, and engaging with retirees, youth, and fellow union members across various environments, from porches to union halls.
As November approaches, the focus remains on advocating for a Detroit that supports every neighborhood equitably.
