A Michigan city has removed hundreds of neighborhood watch signs, arguing that they will make the community more inclusive. The decision was unanimously approved by the City Council in December, with officials arguing that the signs no longer align with modern liberal values. They argued that they reinforced "race-based hyper-vigilance and suspicion" towards black people and other minorities. The city ultimately removed more than 600 signs across Ann Arbor. The removal of these signs will cost taxpayers approximately $18,000, with funds drawn from cash reserves.
