Young II's mother to run for City Council

The Detroit News

Detroit --Annivory Calvert, the mother and former campaign manager of state Rep. Coleman A. Young II, is running for City Council.
Adding her name to a list that is approaching 400, Calvert told The Detroit News on Friday that she is "heeding the call of the people" and circulating petitions for the Aug. 4 primary.
Calvert, a former assistant director of public works, had a relationship with Coleman A. Young, the legendary and controversial former mayor, and left town for several years to raise her son. She managed her son's fifth-place campaign for mayor in February.

She joins a roster that includes former Deputy Police Chief Gary Brown, former Fox-2 personality Charles Pugh and former council staffer Saunteel Jenkins.
