What I did and what I learned about my topic, activism, social justice work or civil and human rights work from this fieldwork?[:: :

Yesterday, my group and I had a presentation about our social justice topic. We read a couple articles on our issue of Homelessness in communities of color and among children. I was shocked by all the information I learned about everything was very interesting but also sad. My group and I did a good job working together to create and present our slide show. This is my personal reaction from our presentation:
Once I had finished reading the articles I was truly surprised. I had previous knowledge of homelessness but I never truly understood or knew about how many people of color and families have to deal with homelessness. Everything I read was very interesting. I also feel motivated to help in anyway I can, I am now hopeful I will be able to help in my own way.
