On the next American Black Journal, Chastity Pratt Dawsey talks with Al Allen, one of Detroit’s most well-known television news reporters, about his new book, “We’re Standing By.”  Now retired, Allen’s book chronicles the stories he covered, reveals details about his family life, and describes his passion for mentoring African American journalists. Plus, the Detroit Sports Zone inducts its newest Hall of Fame class. The honorees are recognized for being outstanding athletes at Detroit high schools or extraordinary contributors to student athletics.
