Documentary showcases revival of Michigan's River Raisin
The River Raisin created prosperity for the people of Southeast Michigan, reflected in its many names, like the "river of sturgeon" and "river of grapes" given by Native Americans and French settlers. The river played a critical role in the history and development of Southeast Michigan. However, that legacy also left environmental damage that contaminated the river and weighed down riverside communities. Filmed over the course of 2018, the eleven minute video documents the recent work on the River Raisin to delist it as an Area of Concern (AOC), which includes removal of dams, installation of fish passages, and reinvigoration of the natural environment.
