LAUNCH

Well... I have been thinking a lot about my project on positive body image and just positivity in general.    I am collaborating with Rebecca on this project and we have already started on it actually...  But our project is semi-secretive and I don't really want to give away anything because we are looking to take up a whole class period...
Although this was my topic last year, I look to expand on the subject enough to fill the class period, and with Rebecca's help, I think we can do an amazing job.  I will hold more in depth interviews with a wider variety of people with Rebecca.  We will look up statistics on this topic as well as possibly contacting people of help.  Youtube holds some inspirational speeches we will take from and adapt to much like the Calvin Terrell activities Rebecca participated in.  We will also find ways that we can make a difference in our own community.
Our presentation will involve some videos we made, activities with the class, and most likely a power point with pictures.
This topic means a lot to me because I think everyone struggles with this and deserves to be able to call themselves beautiful.  I personally have been bullied about this my entire life and I understand how hard this topic is.  Nobody really wants to put it out there and say they struggle with positive body image but I want to talk about it and if it helps just one person then I would say it was worth it.
