Practicing Quakers have been in the Detroit area for more than 100 years. However, a century ago in 1926, The Detroit Friends Meeting was founded – that’s the formal name for Detroit’s Quakers.  Today, they have about 25 members.

While the group may be relatively few in number, they focus on having an outsized impact.

Peter Dale and Mike Kelly are member of Detroit Friends Meeting.  They stopped by The Metro to talk with Alex McLenon about the Quaker’s legacy in the city.
