Southwest Pride (Part #1)
I'm back for another post, could've posted this earlier, but the boredom catches up to me. When myself and the Rogue Bard crew were out for a day of shooting, we happen to pass a group of people standing outside in the front of the Rosa Park Federal Building/U.S Department of Homeland Security protesting about a community being undocumented. There were those holding up signs saying - We are Michigan, we are undocumented ! There are youth group known as Southwest Pride, from Southwest Detroit, Michigan ! The goal is keep Southwest Detroit clean, garden more vegetables, fruit and etc. Keep the youth and animals off the streets and into safe, warm houses and finally give kids the special services they gladly need. I met up with a man by the name of John Lopez whom is a member of this group and many more of them as well. I'm hoping I get to meet with him and the rest of this group as well. For more info on this group that is trying to do their hardest to make Southwest a great place, make you sure you visit their website at http://www.southwestpride.net/ or visit their FaceBook page at http://www.FaceBook.com/DetroitSouthwestPride. One more thing: you can also Email them at SouthwestPride@Yahoo.com . Hope you enjoy this post, because there are more to come.
