Before I begin to vent and list the reasons why I did not enjoy the article, I&#8217;ll sum it up for you. The author, Aaron Millar, informs his audience of travelers about the possibility of the revitalized Detroit. Okay, I know you&#8217;re probably thinking &#8220;Why is Shaylynn so annoyed by a travel article that is supposed to talk about all the new changes in such a cheesy way, the author was just doing their\u00a0job?&#8221; Well maybe that&#8217;s just how I&#8217;m feeling right now, but anyways the main reason why I don&#8217;t like this article is the lack of the back story.<\/p>\n<p>It annoys me because, although it is meant for potential visitors and not a political commentary, I feel like, especially for the traveling audience, they should know the history of Detroit. Why it was in &#8220;ashes&#8221; in the first place and who are the ones in Detroit that &#8220;nothing can stop&#8221;, a.k.a the actual residents and not the suburbanites who only come for special events. Also, how it&#8217;s being downplayed to a &#8220;fresher and more affordable&#8221; option compared to New York City and Chicago. Overall, just seeing the beginning of a possible blander,\u00a0gentrified, and censored Detroit is what is truly bugging me. Aaron Millar, you were just doing your\u00a0job, it&#8217;s not you, it&#8217;s this disgusting, capitalistic, white-washed bull (insert explicit here), that I detest.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey, So in this\u00a0post, I have no patience or energy for formalities.
