“This city makes hustlers. People who know how to keep going when things are not moving forward.”

Oh. Yes. This! 🚙🚘

I was born in Detroit and my mom moved away for graduate school when I was very little but I still have cousins there and the city lives in me. 🎸🎤

Your essay made me feel seen and connected to the Irish and Czech ancestors who settled in Detroit - all the way down here in South Carolina, which has become my home and has its own trauma and grief. 🌴💙

All this to say: Thank you! 🙏
