Context

The World is Flat

Which world?

A Flat Detroit

“We’ve got each others backs.”

Why?

Opportunity + Identity

Staying strategic

Horizontal, not vertical

Informed and engaged communities.

All Detroiters - together - acting, growing, and seeing themselves as leaders.

Not just hipsters & the noble poor.

All people - and city institutions - are potential partners.

Thank you!
