The Right to Assemble
We can come together and act as a collective voice. We bring awareness from a grass-root level to what we think the issues are and how to solve them. Our unity can convince the government and officials to reform policies and have the interest of the people in mind.

Why did you choose this topic?
- With Phresh Philadelphia and
the things that I’ve been interested in lately, the right to assemble was
something that I think is very important. Lately I’ve been into African
American society and the problems within the African American community
and the right to assemble is something that should be utilized within the
community.

did you like about this project? What was most challenging?

Describe
the most interesting fact or event that you investigated.

investigated would be Fracking. I know it is pretty overdone however I
liked the approach that certain people made. I loved Gas Lands and the
fact that people actually are trying to assemble and fight off this
abomination.

How
could this project be improved?
- I don’t think we had a lot of historical

it mean and information.

started the project a bit earlier just to establish more historical fact.
