Blog Post No.7

I began writing the intro for my article on Lacey's Hope Project/ design activism. My hope is to compose an introduction that directly ties back to the deck we created as a group in class. 'This series by MIAD’s emerging creatives focuses on professional art and design in the Milwaukee area and explores their apparent and hidden influence in the community.' I began by stating great things about Milwaukee, all of which conceal some serious issues that are becoming increasingly prominent - Sex Trafficking. I think by setting it up this way, It gives me the opportunity to end the article on a happy note. Bringing the good things about Milwaukee back to the forefront and how Lacey's Hope Project and design activism are a part of the good things that come out of our city. The intro at this time is very rough, but sets the scene.
