Imagine,
if you will, the dieselpunk
Land of Cars. Its main
industry is auto production, so factories are everywhere, the society is
divided between executives and workers, and everything is owned by either
General Motors or Ford.
However,
the Land of Cars has recently had a strange apocalypse
in which the majority of its population has mysteriously disappeared, leaving
behind houses, possessions, and, of course, cars. The remaining people now live amidst the abandonment and decay.
What
we have left is modern day Detroit ,
Michigan , where I spent the last
week volunteering with Cass Community Social Services.While I could—and probably will—write on for
days about all the stuff I did and people I met there, I’ll start with
something fairly simple: this statue I found in a park by the riverfront. Doesn't it look like it just landed from outer space?
