A Change of Perception

I would assume the role of a community organizer and activist. The thing that I would strive to change it the perception of the area I live in. There is a tendency in local politics to focus solely on what we need, or what we don’t have. People forget to celebrate the great things about their communities. The focus is always on the negative. I would strive to make it known how great the extra things are in our neighborhood. We have great museums, great parks and great businesses that we can be proud of. The good things we have almost always outweigh the things we don’t.
