Call it a Career: A Motor City Mom's Pride, Prejudice, and Pension Plan

by C Ann Bernadette, Pamela Hilliard Owens, Sydnee Turner

Ann Bernadette holds a passion for all things Detroit, especially the multitude of hidden gems scattered throughout its vast land-living in the form of people and places and things. After the toppling of the world's once most industrious city, many of its charms were left behind in ruins, only to be admired by those with a desire to care enough, seek them out, and dust them off. Ann tells the story of Detroit's de-industrial era from the perspective of a frayed family at the tail-end of "white flight"; telling a story about how the big city drew people in and then "unwelcomed" their stay. In Call it a Career, she shares a recollection of Detroit's landmarks and legends, all the while hoping and praying to encourage respect for the individuals driven to overcome the challenges of being Detroiters during the downturn, with dreams of unity and more peaceful days for future generations.
