Brainstorming

TOPIC #1 One topic of interest to me is __human perception__ There are two reasons that __human perception__ is significant to me. The first reason that __human perception___ is significant to me is because I find it very interesting how different people, depending on circumstance, will precive different events in (some cases) completely opposite ways from on another. For instance, a gangmember and a southern belle will probably precieve an act of violence very differently. The second reason that __human perception___ is significant to me I wish to become involved in pshycology/sociology in college and therefore want to study it beforehand. There are two reasons for which __human perception__ is significant to community(-ies). The first reason that __human perception__ is significant to the community of __Philadelphia__ is there are a large range of diverse people who may preceive different things, such as violence, crime, or perceiveable happy events differently. philadelphia has a large range of social class, race, and religious affliations within it. The second reason for which __human perception__ is significant to the community of __Philadelphia__ is it would show how things like education level, income, and socail class effect how one preceives different events differently, due to the fact that education level, income, and social class vary so vastly in Philadelphia TOPIC #2 A second topic of interest to me is __modern-day rascim.__ There are two reasons that __modern-day rascim.__ is significant to me. The first reason that __modern-day rascism.__ is significant to me is because, as I stated before, I wish to study sociology in college, and I would like to see how rascim is active today and what sort of effect it takes on people's lives, now that, legally, it no longer technically exsists.. The second reason that __modern-day rascim.__ is significant to me is because I have done a lot of volunteer work on Native American reservations, and have seen first hand how racsim effects people now. Also, rascim is not just a black v. white issue, but reaches out and effects all types of people. There are two reasons for which __modern-day rascim.__ is significant to community(-ies). The first reason that __modern-day rascim.__ is significant to the community of __Standing rock reservation__ is people living out there have a heightened sense of racial predjuice, in that they often fall victim to it. they are also relativly isolated from other races, so the introduction of white or african american poeple on their reservation is often considered foreign and unwelcome. The second reason for which __modern-day rascim.__ is significant to the community of __Standing Rock reservation__ is it shows a different view on rascism, it is not just a black/white issure, but branches out to many other races and effects them as much, if not more, than more "typical/ usually heard about" race issues.

TOPIC #3 A third topic of interest to me is __old vs. new music__ There are two reasons that __old vs. new music__ is significant to me. The first reason that __old vs. new music__ is significant to me is because I am interested in how music has progressed over the past several decades, and how old music has shaped new music. The second reason that ___old vs. new music__ is significant to me is because I find that music made in the past few years lacks the type of importance that older music had. New music often uses sythesized instruments, where older usic uses real instruments and lyrical content is deeper. There are two reasons for which __old vs. new music__ is significant to community(-ies). The first reason that __old vs. new music__ is significant to the community of __Springfield township__ is there are many different people living here with many different views on what types of music is good, and the differences are sometimes obvious and shape the type of friends you make. The second reason for which __old vs. new music__ is significant to the community of __Springfield Township__ is many of the people living here have a type of music that they exclusivly listen too, which again shapes who your friends are.

The second reason that __hoaxes/conspiracy theroies__ is significant to me is because I like to find out details about the events that I would not have normally found out.
