Americans are growing increasingly concerned about the possibility of a recession.
Earlier this month, the Federal Reserve began raising interest rates to slow inflation pressures. During the first quarter of 2022, while consumers and businesses kept spending, U.S. gross domestic product fell by 1.5%, the first drop since the second quarter of 2020, according to The Associated Press.
But that doesn’t necessarily mean the U.S. is falling into a recession.
HuffPost spoke to four economics experts about recession fears, the state of the U.S. economy and what we can do to prepare for what lies ahead.

Metro Detroit's Black-Owned Restaurants
From Baobab Fare to Bert's to Fat Daddy's to Ima, here's a comprehensive list of Black-owned restaurants in metro Detroit.
It is well-documented that Detroit is home to a vast African American population with rich and diverse cultural traditions.

Enjoy perfectly seasoned collards, mac and cheese, and crispy fried chicken in a blues club, an upscale downtown dining room, or in a suburban strip mall
Between 1910 and 1970, more than 6 million Black Americans moved north to cities like Detroit from Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, and other southern states, bringing their food and culinary traditions with them. As a result, most Detroiters are no more than a generation or two removed from “down south,” which means that great southern cuisine — black-eyed peas, collards, fried chicken, sweet potatoes, okra — is ...

Travel issues continued piling up for fliers as flight delays and cancellations topped 10,000 — a tumultuous weekend for holiday travel blamed on staffing shortages, packed planes and the ripple effects from previous bad weather.
