Walking Exercise

One of the questions that was asked of the youth at Bessemer Park was, "what would you change in your neighborhood?" We then proceeded to walk around the community surrounding Bessemer Park with cameras to photograph what we would change. The three below are some good examples of the viewpoints of our youth.

There are hundreds, probably thousands of vacant lots on the Southside of Chicago. One of the ideas we looked at during the summer were the accets of our communities. If we change our viewpoints, these vacant lots become opportunities instead of a "sore-eye" or a place for drug activity.

I think this one is self explanitory!!

This image is another example of an asset in our communties.
