you never know what you'll find here

So I was riding my bike yesterday.... Rinder, this is after I chatted with the neighbor and she will be making us keys to the basement (whoop). It was a great day. The ride was long overdue.... I continued on and as I was approaching Jefferson, I stopped and attempted to detach my shoes from the pedal...well that didn't go as planned and plop! I fell right on over... I brushed it off like no one saw. I continued on and when I got to grand circus park I noticed tents....weird, right! So I went over there and saw speakers and a handfull of people listening. I saw signs that said "thinking about socialism...learn more here" for example. This gathering was for some peoples movement to bail out the people type of thing. I think they were protesting a national economic summit that was occuring at the Ren Cen. The people said things such as "f' the establishment", "We do all the work and if we dont fight, we will be turned into slaves"... When I heard this my jaw dropped. I continued to watch. It was a gathering of many races from all over the country. I caught the tail end so not as many people were there. It was at this moment, I was reminded of the effect the recession has had on people. Here in Detroit, you really dont know what you will find but it is exciting to know you will find people standing for something whether you agree with it or not. I look forward to what I will find in the upcoming weeks.
