give neglected Detroit properties new life and a second chance — the same things the neighborhood offered them when they moved there in 2017.
“My family went sideways when I came out…I love the South, but family dynamic in the South is different,” Bynum shares. “I was looking to rebuild and [Detroit] was the perfect place to come and do that…It's the kindest place I've ever lived, contrary to its reputation.”share, the construction industry and the LGBTQ+ community haven't always felt compatible.
“That was the number one thing I said when I left there,” Bynum recalls. “I was like, ‘One day I'm going to have a place and it will not matter. It will not matter what you are or who you are, nobody is going to feel like crap. That's not fair.’”Bynum has realized that dream in front of a national audience, and he and Thomas are using their platform to continue breaking down barriers.
