on the streets

So i thought and thought.. and for my community i would like to look at gangs. Not exactly one gang in specific, but all gangs in general. You know along the lines of the bloods and such. Maybe just the different origins of gangs, different types, their purpose, their initiations and such. I think this would be a good topic because it is a unique community that people don't know about, or aren't really supposed to know about. Gangs are real and they are also interesting. Maybe I could look at gangs in different states and the type of people that are in them. I don't really know what else there is to know about gangs but I think it is an interesting community to analyze. If a gang is not a good community because the information is secret, then my second choice would be to look at the homeless community. I think it would be interesting to find out about poverty in the U.S and the rest of the world. How they got into that position, if they intend to get out if it, what they live like and stuff like that. I think people often have a negative view towards the homeless and in analyzing this community it would enlighten people to their everyday lives. Those are the two possible communities that I think would be interesting topics for paper three and the final project.

  1. I think that both gangs and the homeless community would be interesting to write about. Especially the homeless because they are easy to find and there is a shelter nearby. Interesting you chose the two seeing that there were so much gangs and poor people at Palmetto.
