At last year's APTE Summit, we had a conversation with a panel of social entrepreneurs from Detroit on the future of their city. In anticipation of this year's summit on February 28th, we've decided to revisit Detroit and talk with emerging social business Rebel Nell, co-founded by Amy Peterson!

Rebel Nell repurposes graffiti as high-fashion jewelery. They employ local homeless and at-risk women, involving them in every aspect of production and marketing, and teaching them business skills in the process. We talk to Amy about the social goals of Rebel Nell and the role that small artisan companies can play in Detroit's revitalization.
