Around the nation with The Takeaway: Atlanta and Detroit

The World

This morning The Takeaway is reaching out across the country to see how the inauguration is resonating in local communities. We’ll start with Detroit and Atlanta, majority black cities with rich African-American cultural traditions. William Boone, professor of political science at Clark Atlanta University, and Sarah Hulett, Detroit reporter for Michigan Radio, join John and Adaora with perspectives on the inauguration and their home towns.
