 This is an Action Project for my core class Policy. During this term, we have been looking at policy and how and what it is. We looked at it in the constitution and also in the government today. We took a look at different policies in Chicago and how they would change the world in a good or bad way. We were also visited by a few FE guests who should us a deeper meaning behind policy and how it can help us in the end for this project. We were visited by Arne Duncan, Akio Katano, the CCHR, and Nick Anderson. Keeping in mind the things they taught us about, we were tasked with finding a policy in Chicago (preferably a new one), and then creating a letter addressed to someone who represents me and my city asking them to advocate for this policy. The policy I chose was about the Anjanette Young Ordinance. This led me to research more into this policy and why what the police did was so wrong. Not just because they broke into an innocent civilian's home, but because they did so against t...

 This is an Action Project for my volunteer work during the summer. During the start of the pandemic, hundreds of people in my neighborhood were affected. They couldn't get they supplies they needed. So, I teamed up with Sunshine Gospel Ministries and almost every weekday I helped give out food and care packages. These packages usually contained cleaning supplies, food, toiletries, and other items people needed. This eventually got so popular we ran out of things to give away. I was joined by my brother and sister and a few friends to help me pass out these items. Eventually it came to an end but I will always enjoy the service I was able to provide to people in need. Below are images of me and my friends working hard during the summer.

     This is an Action Project for my core class Urban Planning. This unit was all about electricity and how it works in circuits, housing, and other appliances. We learned that there were two main circuit types, AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current). We each got our own circuit kits where we made different circuits. Parallel and series circuits are some of the main circuits we focused on this unit. We were able to find the amount of voltage in one circuit using Ohm’s law. For this Action Project, we were tasked with creating a circuit that goes in a sustainable house and also how we can use the resistors of the circuit and transform them into some sort of power saving appliance. Below is an image of the circuit as a diagram and a picture before the circuit was placed into a cardboard housing frame. CJH/Circuit/2021          Below I have provided an image of my circuit with the frame. I am using the resistors (lights) as a windmill...
