The Image of River Rouge Begins with You. When Dr. Emanuel P. Rivers was contemplating what to speak about during the 61st Annual Black History & Brotherhood Banquet, he said that phase sums up his upbringing and the city of River Rouge.
Dr. Rivers is a graduate of the class of 1972 from River Rouge where he was the valedictorian. He reflected on the role that the family and the community played in making him who he is today. Rivers presentation was a history lesson for all that were in attendance. He had a powerpoint presentation that included River Rouge of old, classmates, historic events, his appearance on the news station where he explained his new way of dealing with Sepsi, infections. Rivers gave a eye-opening progression of his life from kindergarten to Northrup to River Rouge High to the University of Michigan and then gave a overview of his accomplishments since becoming a medical doctor. All that he has accomplished was due to his upbringing in River Rouge. As he said, He is still representing over thirty years later.
