With only days left in the race for Mayor of Detroit, challenger State Sen. Coleman A Young II talked up his vision for the city and elaborated on the state of race relations in an exclusive web-only CBS 62 "Michigan Matters" interview.

Young is the son of former Detroit Mayor Coleman A. Young, who was the first African American to be elected to the office.

Young, 35, is running against incumbent Mayor Mike Duggan in the Nov. 7 election.

He added auto insurance rates were out of control in Detroit and he would sue the insurance companies to lower rates too.

Young talked about his time in Lansing and the divisive political climate.

Young talked with Carol Cain, CBS 62 Senior Producer of "Michigan Matters," in the web-exclusive interview.
