Detroit made history. Because of course we did. 💙🏙️

Last night on Honolulu Blue Day the Detroit NFL Draft set the all-time Day 1 record with 275,000k+ people attending! 💯

The NFL Commission Roger Goodell has issued a challenge to Detroit to beat the all-time 3-day NFL Draft attendance record!!! Let’s go Detroit!!!

The magic of this city is like no other. Our creativity, innovation, and culture are things you won’t find anywhere else. We’ve never taken a back seat. We were born to drive. And when we do, the world rides with us.

When Detroit moves, the world moves. 🌎

In this moment, the people of Detroit deserve the spotlight because without them this wouldn’t be possible. Hear some of their stories at the “Pillars” exhibit at Guardian Building, with 32 8 foot tall portraits of Detroiters including images from the breathtaking skyline they call home.

We come from greatness, a greatness that is deeply rooted in the resilience and strength of our ancestors who survived the most evil system of exploitation known to mankind. Here on American soil, we have witnessed the power of hope and determination in the face of oppression. Let us never forget this legacy and continue to pass it down to future generations, so they may continue to build a better world for all.

Woodrow Wilson Woolwine Strode (July 25, 1914 – December 31, 1994) was an athlete and actor. He was a decathlete and football star who was one of the first African American players in the NFL in the postwar era. He went on to become a film actor, where he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Spartacus. He served in the Army Air Corps during WWII.
He attended Thomas Jefferson High School in South East Los Angeles and UCLA, where he was a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity via the Alpha Delta Chapter. His world-class decathlon capabilities were spearheaded by a 50 ft plus shot put and a 6 ft 5 in the high jump.
"I got a cultural education—majored in history and education," he said in a 1971 interview. "Never used it, but I could walk into the White House with it now."
He, Kenny Washington, and Jackie Robinson starred on the 1939 UCLA Bruins football team, in which they made up three of the four backfield players. They became famous nationally as "the Gold Dust gang".
Along with Ray Bartlett, four African Americans were playing for the Bruins, when only a few dozen at all played on other college football teams. They played eventual conference and national champion USC to a 0–0 tie with the 1940 Rose Bowl on the line. It was the first UCLA–USC rivalry football game with national implications.
He dabbled for several months in professional wrestling. He wrestled almost every week from August 12, 1952, to December 10, 1952, in different cities in California. He was billed as the Pacific Coast Heavyweight Wrestling Champion and the Pacific Coast Negro Heavyweight Wrestling Champion in 1962.
Sheriff Woody of Toy Story is named after him, as was the recurring character of the Santa Barbara Coroner in Psych.
