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

On Friday, our grade went to the Museum of the City of New York. The trip wasn’t very beneficial to my group. As Haiti is in the Caribbean and the museum was mostly about the history of activism in NY. Even though we didn’t learn anything about our topic, we still learned about some of the history of movements.

The museum really made me wonder what I can do at a young age. We’re doing this project for school, but some people chose to do this with their own will. The history of activism is way more than I thought it was.
