Hip Hop and Preservation in Detroit

Watch these videos and tell me you're not the least bit interested in packing up and moving to Detroit. The suffering is palpable, but so are the outcries against the continued downward spiral that the city's leadership has failed to stem. The city continues to rip the city's history and heritage down, but the economy isn't looking any better.





Thanks to my friend Karen Gadbois of the excellent New Orleans preservation-and-activism site Squandered Heritage. for alerting me to the presence of this thoughtful and intriguing duo.

Great videos. Now when will Detroit impeach Monica Conyers?
