Hello World! Hello Detroit!

Just over one week ago, I packed up my boxes and abandoned New York City for Detroit, Michigan, to start my career as a civil rights lawyer. 

This blog will chronicle my life here in a city that is so completely and thoroughly neglected that there are four hundred liquor stores/check cashing joints but no grocery stores; so few services that firefighters take two hours to respond to 911 calls; and the only city where Allstate will charge you four hundred dollars a month to insure your car. 

What follows is a collection of photography, prose, social commentaries, and personal musings.
