This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Emma talks about the beauty of the city of Detroit and how their is much more to be proud about than what makes the news. The beauty of the city should be cherished and supported by everyone in the community. 

Emma Rooney is a Sophomore at Grosse Pointe South High School. 20 Time is a project where students are given one day a week to explore something they are passionate about. At the end of the year, the students share what they learned along the way.  This is Emma's story. 

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
