Let's Talk about this Project

Dear Class, I loved Jazmin Simmons' talk it was one of the best we had ; like many has already stated. She is so passionate and so driven about her work and that's something I like to see. Real people helping out a community that could use help. I though she was funny and very fresh and I thought she gave an excellent perspective on a lot if issues in Station North and just in Baltimore. I thought it was crazy when she mentioned Hollins Market area and that fancy restaurant that that use to be there because I literally live area the corner from that market and I near noticed that restaurant. So, I thought that was a huge connection to how I feel about my community. Currently in our group I know we have done a lot of brainstorming over spring break. We have came up with a theme that we can all agree on. I have came up with questions I can ask the person I plan on interviewing. I am currently keeping close contact with Dr. King because she has the person information I really would like to interview. Her name is CJay and she is a dancer and she lead a workshop for Dance & Bmore, so I waiting to hear back and see if she is willing to let me maybe interview her. Also I am in the process of completing the CITI training. Also I will be thinking about another interview subject just in case the first one falls through.
