That right. Coleman Young Jr's mother, Annivory Calvert. I got a call to turn on Channel 20, on Comcast at Around 12:30 today. The station is WHPR, same channel as RJ Watkins and Malik Shabazz. The Comcast grid says "Religous Programming" and Callers call in and ask about political and other issues re: Detroit. | ||

A friend of mine had an encounter with her out here, I think his word was "sheesh" | ||

I heard she lives in Indian Village in a large home on Sheridan. I don't know what she does now, but Coleman Young Sr. made her the Assistant Director of Public Works 20 years ago. They say she came to work in a full length mink coat, and ordered everyone around like she was the Queen of the Nile. | ||

Does anyone know where I could see a picture of her? I was a classmate of an Annie Ivory in Jr. high. Would she be in her early 60s? I'm just curious to know if this is the same person?? | ||

Didn,t CAY Jr run for State Rep? | ||
Westsiiiide Member Username: Westsiiiide Post Number: 281 Registered: 05-2008 |
I think Annivory is about 50 because she was about 30 when she got pregnant by Coleman Young Senior. He was 70. And now Coleman Jr. is about 22 or 23. Her show comes on Comcast CableChannel 20 between 12:30 and 1:00 pm. She's still pretty, but now she is a plus-size. And yes, CAY jr is a State Rep. | ||

Is the the same woman who parked on Jefferson during the Grand Prix? She claimed she had 'diplomatic immunity' when they tried to give her a ticket? Or, do I have her mixed up with someone else? | ||

I do remember that. But then it may have been Coleman Young Sr. sister. | ||

Hi, I am Annivory. I am 54. I have been asked to host a TV/radio show from 12-2 on WHPR 88.1fm, TV33 (analog), Comcast Channel 20 (12:30-2pm) and streaming live video at tv33whpr.com. Thank you for your interest. It may or may not be of interest for you to know that I never said those words "diplomatic immunity." No one from the press ever asked me what I said. They've quoted themselves all these years. I asked if they were really going to arrest me for trying to go into the restaurant parking lot and park? They did handcuffed me, my mom, my 2 sisters and took my then 2 year old son into custody. I was just trying to go into the parking lot and have breakfast. We weren't trying to go to the Grand Prix. Great talking with you. | ||

Hi Detroiter2 and welcome! How great for the forum to get information directly from the source. Sorry to hear about your experience -- that must have been traumatic, especially as it related to your mom and your 2-your-old. | ||

Hi, Detroiter2 I remember reading about the Police Department, namely Chief Hart's brother, following your every move which I thought was harrassment. Being a long time Detroit and retired City employee, I wondered what happened to you. I am glad that you and your son are doing good; and you have the television show, and glad that you have been completely exonerated for whatever the City was attempting to do to you. Keep staying the strong person that you were blessed to be. | ||

Thanks for responding, Detroiter2. I don't think the subject of a discussion has participated since the Steve Wilson megathread. (Message edited by xphillipjrx on September 25, 2008) | ||

Wow, Detroiter2, thank you for the update. I'm glad you didn't really say that. Thank you for setting the record straight. | ||

Thank you. I've read this blog for several years, without being a member. I've enjoyed your perspectives. You all have really sharp and intuitive comments. One of my sisters, brought this one to my attention. Yes, CAYJ ran for State Rep 4th District for the 2nd term and won with 70% with 4 opponents. The first time he won with a 13% point spread in a field of 16 Democratic candidates. We worked harder than at anything we've ever worked at before. I am his campaign manager. I appreciate your comments. Thank you, again. | ||
