NFL Cleats Go Flint!
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defensive End William Gholston is from Michigan and Baltimore Ravens CB Brandon Carr is from Flint. Both wore cleats on Sunday to raise awareness about the water crisis in Flint.

Flint Fashion
Here is a great story about turning something negative into a positive. Flint has been surviving on bottled water since 2015. The result has been mounds of empty plastic bottles. Socially-conscious fashion designers are going to make a line of clothing out of the recycled plastic bottles called "Flint Fit." The plan to debut the line of clothing at the Queens Museum in New York in April 2018. Pretty Cool!!! https://www.voanews.com/a/flint-plastic-bottles-recycle-fashion-toxic-water-crisis/4095927.html
