Author Shirley Harris-Slaughter stops by Good Deeds w/ Dr. Renee Sunday

Shirley Harris-Slaughter is a Michigan native, baptized into the Catholic faith with her 

family while attending Our Lady of Victory School.  She lived the history growing up in 

the West Eight Mile Community and is uniquely qualified to write about it. Shirley 

watched helplessly as her parish lost its legacy. This propelled her to write about it, and 

correct its omission from the pages of history. 

She graduated Magna Cum Laude with a B.B.A. from Cleary University in Howell. She is 

married to Langston and lives in Oak Park.
