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, the 24th, my class went to the Museum of the City of New York. At the museum, we learned about the transgender movement, the women’s movement of the 1960s, and more. The artifacts we saw were simple yet very important to our discussed topics. The field trip helped me understand how to directly impact these issues. After our tour, we asked the tour guide about our topics and her perspective. She provided some excellent answers that helped me see my topic in a different light. Overall, the field trip was enjoyable, and I learned a lot.
