HAMTRAMCK, Mich. -

The Polish flocked to Hamtramck in the 1900s and evidence of the city's Polish roots remain.

However, over the last few decades a new wave of immigrants, primarily from the Middle East, South Asia and Southeastern Europe, has dramatically changed the face and culture of this community.

Now, the Hamtramck City Council is going to reflect that diversity. Quick Clicks

"We are very proud and we are very happy for that achievement, what we have done in this city, for our city," said Jamal Alturki, a voter.

Voters gave Abu Musa and Anam Miah another term in office. Saad Almasmari was elected for the first time. Now four of the six City Council members will be of Muslim faith.

It's said to be the first majority Muslim City Council not only in Hamtramck but in the entire country.

"I think that sends a message not only to Hamtramck but throughout the region that people want their representation in offices," Miah said.

Although there will be more diversity at the table, they want to make clear the goal of public service stays the the same.

"My concern is to give the people, everybody, equal opportunity and be fair for everybody," said Musa.

"We are going to represent everybody. We are going to serve everybody, Christians, Jewish, Muslims, everybody," said Almasmari.


Poster Comment:

I am more inclined to believe there will be a sudden worldwide drop in population but not to nuclear war. This world has gone to hell. I remember reading an article about young people in London during the Battle of Britain. They made sacrifices. Walking long distances home in the dark during the Blitz. Stopping to help rescue people. 50 years later. They all said they was no reason to fight the war. They would have been better off with Hitler winning.
