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

Coach Macky was our first interview and it went well. Most of us previously knew him through basketball in lower Manhattan. We had a document of planned questions and Macky answered them in a lot of depth. We learned more than we had thought and we now see his non – profit in a whole different way. He talked about the diversity of the program and it’s main mission. We are grateful for his time and learning about his organization and early life.
