"If You Don't Own Land, You Don't Own Power." Ownership is the key to generational wealth, but in Detroit, that power is constantly under attack. From over-assessed property taxes to deed fraud and predatory real estate schemes, Black Detroiters are losing land—and with it, the foundation of community stability and wealth-building. In this powerful discussion, Anthony Adams, a legal and political mind with deep experience in city government, breaks down the policies, politics, and legal maneuvers that determine who truly owns Detroit. From the impact of the Land Bank and Community Benefits Agreements to the controversial shifts in Detroit's tax structure, Adams lays out the real game being played with our neighborhoods. Host Khary Frazier challenges Adams to make sense of how we fight back—whether through land trusts, cooperative economics, or radical restructuring of city policies. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone who cares about Detroit's future and their own financial empowerment. Don't get caught on the wrong side of the deal—tune in and learn how to protect what's yours.

Today, a conversation about the idea of establishing a Land Bank as a way to solve the persistent problem of vacant and blighted properties that degrade many neighborhoods in Baltimore. It's not a new idea; land banks have been set up in many cities around the country. They are typically quasi-government agencies whose mission is to acquire dilapidated properties, clear the titles, and speed up redevelopment. But it's an idea that has never quite gotten off the ground here in Baltimore. Back in 2009, Mayor Sheila Dixon proposed a version of a Land Bank, but the city council nixed the idea. Baltimore's vacant housing crisis has not gone away, however, and the city's estimated 15,000 vacant properties still pose enormous challenges to adjacent communities, businesses and city leaders eager to erase the blight. So what would a Land Bank look like in Baltimore City? Who would run it, and what would it cost? Baltimore City Councilwoman Odette Ramos, who represents District 14 on the Council, has co-sponsored legislation that would establish a Land Bank. She joins Tom in Studio A to explain how it would work, and what it would mean for our city. Then, we're joined by a housing advocate and non-profit developer with a unique perspective on land banks. Bree Jones left her job as a Wall Street analyst to work instead to halt the gentrification she saw destroying neighborhoods in her hometown of New Rochelle, New York. After some success there doing non-profit housing redevelopment, she moved to Baltimore, where she felt the need for equitable housing restoration was especially acute. In 2018 she founded Parity Homes, which is currently working to renovate and reclaim houses - without displacing residents - in Harlem Park, on Baltimore's West side.

Today's show is a grab bag of topics. We talk a bit about Jer's trip to Memphis, how walkable it was, and an old train station that was converted to a hotel and restaurant but also is still a train station.
