Hometown Hero - Detroit

Watch a few videos about Detroit.

Find one current (last 6 months) news article about Detroit. I'm willing to bet the article was related to Detroit's economic problems.

Write about the article you read, the video(s) assigned, and your opinion (respectfully).

Be sure to provide a citation and hyperlink to the article you read.

When you are done, read some posts and respond to at least one class member. Check out their article and be thoughtful.
