'Changing the narrative about Michigan'

[LuckyTheDog]

Around here, you hear a lot of talk about "changing the narrative about Michigan."

At a time when the headlines are all about the state's 12% unemployment rate and the demise of the once-great domestic automakers, there IS some good news. For example, this also is a state with three top-notch research universities and a growing technology sector.

So, people keep asking: "How do we get the word out? When they hear 'Michigan,' how do we get people to think something other than 'laid-off auto worker' or 'rust belt?'" There has been a lot of hand-wringing about that.

Well, here's my shot at it. Here is what I am doing about "changing the narrative about Michigan."
