Old Work

This Fall the students from the Central District Organization started going to Get on My Level in Chicago this is one of our many projects that we got done. It was a comic strip about a news story about sexual assault, our news team went all out on this one. We researched and studied this topic and found out some really good information and helpful tips. We even got a sexual assault victim to come out and give us a first hand account on what it is like and how she got throw it.

Brainstorm: The Result

This is the result of the brainstorming we did a couple sessions ago. We came up with the idea to have a questionaire and give it to people in the community. We are doing this to get a response from the people in the neighborhood. We want the people in Gary to voice how they feel about Gary's problems so that we can try to solve them.

BRAINSTORM

The next couple of posts are going to be some examples of ideas brainstormed by youth in the GOML group. So far most of the groups projects have been pitched by me to the group after our discussions. We're trying something different this time. The youth know Photoshop, Illustrator and the blog idea well enough that now they should be able to come up with a project largely on their own, with a little help from me. Let's see what we come up with.

First Step

This picture is Jonathan and Brittanie putting up some posters on "Where is your Community". This was the first step of many and we did this to get a reaction from the community . There will be more photos to come.

Fresh Posters

Our new posts that were just put up are the answers to the previous posters that asked, "Where Is Your Community?" With these posters we asked ourselves what could our community use, or what would we like to see in our community. In another week these will also be posted around our community in unison with the ones already posted in hopes to raise awareness.
