Over the past 20 years, roller derby has seen a major revival across the country. The modern derby era – which got rolling around 2000 in Austin, Texas – is a far cry from the ultra-staged smackdowns of the 80s, or the flame-and-fade derby of the 50s. Now, many major cities now boost their own derby leagues--including Detroit.

Stateside intern Ellie Katz headed to one of the Detroit Roller Derby league’s recent bouts to scope out the scene.

GUESTS:

Amelia Greco, Detroit Roller Derby member

Amy Ruby, Detroit Roller Derby member
