Contributor Cecelia Sharpe talks with Dr. Funkenstein himself, George Clinton, and fellow funk artist Maurice “Pirahnahead” Herd about Detroit’s influence on their music. We’ll take you behind the scenes of The Purple Rose Theatre Company’s current play, “The Classic King.” Plus, as part of our caregiving series, we’ll hear from a Detroit woman whose journey led her to launch a newspaper to help other caregivers.
