DAMN MAN!
In 1989 I was invited with Ron Scott to a meeting with the city with a group of young entrepreneurs after moving in the Ren-Cen with my concert promotion business in 400 Tower and buying The Adams Theater.

At this meeting was 100 talented young black men who had businesses in the Detroit. The topic for discussion was buying up all the buildings along the Cass Corridor from the city for a few dollars.

One after one all the mutter in the air from the majority of us was we don't want that junk its too ghetto and run down. After an good hour or all of us ran out the room asking why is the city wasting our time with this nonsense and those run down building, drugs, violence and bums all over.

Fast forward to the present-those same buildings have been taking over and turned into a bastion of wealth and upscale properties that we cant get our hands on now or even afford. When the city was begging us to take them back then for peanuts. Sometimes big ain't always better when you are fighting for a future that you cant see, feel or touch immediately in your community or city.

Which brings me to my present struggle about standing against the grain for places in our city that don't stand up now but when others come in and change them we will flock back in as visitors in our own city with a smile and hand over our dollars-here boss.

I run a small venue in the city Ooh Wee Coffee Cafe. I watch my people come through my door and walk out take their dollars across the street in my face and make comments about me not having the necessities like the other venues of the size because we're on 7mile and the location all of that as I work my ass off morning noon and night.

Which brings me to my feelings on hand. I went to the Paul Roberson Theater a.k.a. The Detroit Activities Center and the first thing I did was had the same mentality I had in 1989 and found all the faults instead of thinking about how can I make a difference with my Dollars in this facility which is in need of help. I went to the Bel-Air Theater whom was the one place that offered me free rental for my first feature The Next Generation Movie 9yrs ago and rolled out the red carpet for me.

Now that their back us up against wall and their facility has a few problems. I cant bring myself to turn my back on the only theater that Independents filmmakers can go and showcase their movies for a fair price and make a good profit. You would think all the indie-filmmakers would come together on a Zoom call to save our own and fight and help build in our own back yard with our dollars.

Those words are out again: ITS GHETTO, ITS RUNDOWN.
ps. I know I cant fight this mind set. DAMN MAN! If you don't stand for something you will fall for anything and everything in the Suburbs.
