Few cities are as iconic of America’s industrial and civic fall as Detroit.
Dewayne Hendricks grew up in Detroit and left. Recently he returned, to see where and how he might help revive his city.
If we can sort out what’s wrong in Detroit, he figures, we may sort out larger issues, too. To start, as part of the upcoming Maker Faire Detroit, Dewayne is bringing James Burke’s Connections notions to the vast collections of The Henry Ford Museum.
With Dewayne, let’s discuss:
- What kinds of initiatives have traction now in Detroit? What models and words work?
- How do local citizens address rebuilding?
- Where is Detroit headed? Will it be a city farm, a cluster of inburbs or something else?
Here are some more resources of interest for our call:
- Detroit Works Project
- Hacking Metro Detroit
- Ford Rotunda by Bucky Fuller
- Creative Detroiters quietly rebuild…
- Detroit Memory Project
- All these links and more in my Brain online.
