Aretha Homegoing

Enjoy this short but action packed piece taken from our first day in Detroit - this was at the Queen of Soul’s memorial at The Charles H Wright museum. Aretha was BELOVED by Detroit and Detroit was beloved by Aretha.
The pic you see of the gold coffin was taken at the actual funeral - we didn’t get too much coverage there as we wanted to be respectful and it was quite honestly so overwhelming to see some of the greatest artists and activists of the Civil Rights movement right before our very eyes. Aretha - we love you Queen - RESPECT!
