It’s a Friday night and a half-dozen volunteers and employees from New Era Detroit are gathered inside their headquarters on Schoolcraft Road in the Brightmoor neighborhood. They’re armed, dressed in black boots, black cargo pants, and black varsity jackets with the phrase “Our Community Our Responsibility” stitched on the back. The facility is equipped with the essentials you would expect for a nonprofit organization: a banquet table, podium, wooden bench, and a dry-erase board.
