IRVING, Texas – Brandon Carr loves his hometown, Flint, Michigan. He remembers how vibrant it was, with the automotive industry dominating the city. He remembers Tuesday and Friday nights at the local high schools in the winter to watch basketball games.
“I’m a product of my environment,” the Dallas Cowboys’ cornerback said. “There are a lot of great memories and a lot of positive things about the Flint community. It pushed me. It molded me into the type of person I am today.”
And now he feels called to help Flint deal with a water crisis.
