Someone started a GoFundMe titled: “Fix the Bike Lane—Leave Clarence’s Yard Alone.” Within a week, it had raised over $42,000. Jordan came by, eyes wide, and held out his phone. “Mr. Briggs—we can fix the trail. Like, actually fix it. People donated enough to finish the lane.”
Clarence blinked, stunned. “All because of that video?” Jordan smiled. “All because you held your ground.” A week later, Clarence and Jordan walked into City Hall together. This time, Clarence didn’t need a clipboard or wait in a long line.
