Can you imagine? Kids are wearing Nike-everything, and heвЂ™s got a Bill Cosby sweater on, every time!вЂќ Saladeen recalls, laughing. And this one kid, JP, used to wear these Bill Cosby sweaters all the time. вЂњYouвЂ™d see everybody at the skating rink. It was there that, as a 12 year-old, the Southwest Philly native met his ultimate cheerleader, JP, the friend who would unlock SaladeenвЂ™s belief in himself and the art heвЂ™d been creating from the time he was just five, drawing on the walls of his Southwest Philly bedroom, his mom nurturing her only childвЂ™s wild imagination.Д«ut the thing that sets you apart? ThatвЂ™s your superpower, what will change your life-and unleash the best of what Philly has to offer. Locally, you can find SaladeenвЂ™s work at Fitler Club, at Boyds, even at the Philadelphia International Airport.Д«ut the root of his work? That can best be traced back to the humble Elmwood Roller Skating Rink at 72nd Street and Grays Avenue.

Who is tackling our problems in new ways? Who is positively impacting this city, shaking up the status quo, disrupting the predictable old ways of doing things? Whose ideas are giving you new hope for Philly?
