Lincoln Park's abolitionist inheritance

Lincoln Park is one of Detroit's oldest downriver suburbs — established as a working-class Ford-employee community along Fort Street, with a strong Polish, Southern-Baptist, and Latino population mix. Home to Lincoln Park High School and the historic Fort Street Presbyterian.

The Catholic, Polish National Catholic, and evangelical Baptist churches in Lincoln Park hold the historic pro-life teaching. Downriver's Reagan-Democrat character makes the abolitionist case a real possibility here.

Regional heritage · Wayne County

Detroit — 'Midnight,' the last stop before freedom

Detroit's Underground Railroad codename was 'Midnight,' the final station on the freedom corridor before the crossing to Canada at 'Dawn' (Windsor and Amherstburg). Second Baptist Church on Monroe Street, founded by escaped freedom seekers themselves, sheltered an estimated 5,000 people between 1836 and the Civil War. George DeBaptiste, William Lambert, and the Colored Vigilant Committee ran a highly organized escape network from the Detroit riverfront. When federal marshals came to enforce the Fugitive Slave Act, Detroit abolitionists physically prevented seizures in the streets. That corridor of moral resistance is preserved in Detroit's own memory, and today's abolitionist work in Wayne County stands squarely in it.

Prop 3 vote · Wayne County · 2022

68.3%Yes

31.7%No

A majority of Wayne County voters approved Proposal 22-3, the Reproductive Freedom for All amendment. Statewide, it passed 56.7% to 43.3%. A majority vote does not settle whether preborn image-bearers deserve equal protection under the law — that is a moral question the ballot cannot answer, and it is exactly the question the abolition movement asks Michigan to reopen.
