It does not address the root causes.]]> 2019-04-16 18:40:30 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/352087792 Tank man by Ned Zhang https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/352451075 He is protesting, so this falls into the category of #5 "Protest/Community Organizing (working AGAINST authorities)." The target audience is the western journalists, so they could get paid for taking this picture. The root of this scene is that a man trying to show his power in front of the authority, and his pursuit of happiness and freedom.

I think the target audience are citizens of the united states and congressmen and other important people in the government. I don’t think it addresses the root cause of the problem, but it is a step to getting there. ]]> 2019-04-18 01:34:26 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/352462406 Eli Marcoux https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/352465279 The social change I chose was giving money to homeless people, which is direct service. Its target audience is homeless people, and it doesn't address the root cause of homelessness. ]]> 2019-04-18 01:57:53 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/352465279 Paul Keenan keep200 https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/352485187 This is a yard sign that advocates for keeping the old Hardy School public.

1 - Its category is Education / Raising Public Awareness.
2 - The target audience is whoever walks by the sign and reads it, so the DC public generally.
3 - It does not address the root cause of the problem.]]> 2019-04-18 04:53:18 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/352485187 Jack Wang https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/352569254 Falun Gong self-immolation

1. Its catagory is Raising Public Awareness/Education. 2. The target audience is people who walk past/wait at the Tenlytown bus stop. 3. This partially addresses the root causes of bullying by encouraging people to call out bullies and spread kindness instead through the use of emojis.]]> 2019-04-18 21:33:33 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/352677823 Raising Awareness conc1 https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/353810355 1.

2. He targets his protests towards the Vatican embassy as a form of protest, and towards the people passing by to raise awareness around the issue.

This mainly targets teenagers and tells them not to smoke.
It doesn't fully address the root cause because it doesn't say anything for cigarette companies but addresses it in a way.

It is an example of direct action. Its target was at representatives and those in power. It does attempt to address the root cause of the problem]]> 2019-05-21 12:35:55 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/362108115 Raising Awareness Around Police Brutality/Black Lives Matter https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/362917255 I chose as my social change in my community of black lives matter, which was mostly initiated because of police brutality in 2014 with Michael Brown. The targeted audience is most likely to white policeman and anybody/everybody who is still comvinced black people aren't humans too or/and shouldn't have rights. Yes, this picture captures the importance of this social movement and is easy to understand. This picture is raising awareness because it catches the eye and has a deep statement, especially with the tape over his mouth saying the important chant "black lives matter"]]> 2019-05-23 13:21:00 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/362917255 Jonah Coleman colj210 https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414098052 1) I think this ad promotes both Direct Service and Advocacy because it is encouraging people who are already aware to stop just liking on social media but actually volunteer and get involved
2) I think this ad specifically targets social media users and people in countries far from the problems that are illustrated on this ad (and people who see this issue but do not try and stop it or directly help)
3) I think it gets more into the root cause of the problems by encouraging people who already know about the issue to get up, volunteer, and actually help combat the issue. However it is hard to tell if this will actually address the root cause until you see if more people actually do volunteer rather than just like a post.]]> 2019-11-20 16:12:18 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414098052 Natalie Thorpe https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414145925 raising public awareness/ education and protest/community organizing
my neighborhood has a trolly trail that people want to repave and some people don't want that because of how it would ruin the mini ecosystem there. this is for the community to see and the neighborhood board to understand that people don't want that. it does address part of the root problem but the other is how the neighborhood wants to further gentrify the area. ]]> 2019-11-20 17:10:00 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414145925 Hanson Wang https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414325285 1) Protest
2) Governments and different communities around the world.
3) It will address the problem if handled properly. ]]> 2019-11-20 21:14:02 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414325285 Sigita Puskorius https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414415955 1. This is raising public awareness/protest in the community.
2. The target audience of this is people in power (after Mike Pence moved into my neighborhood - when Trump was about to get inaugurated).
3. I don't think this addresses the root problem, but it raises awareness about how my community supports the LGBTQ+ community. ]]> 2019-11-21 01:33:17 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414415955 Kalea George-Phillips https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414643409 raising awareness about the benefits of arts in schools.

2) The public and the authorities
3) It does not address the root cause of the problem and instead focuses more on education]]> 2019-11-21 14:54:14 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414684178 Jacob Rosinplotz https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414723003 1. This falls into raising awareness and calling authorities into action. It is also a form of protest.
2. Since this is a rally about climate change, it targets the general public, as well as the inactive authorities.
3. It does address the root cause in a roundabout way.]]> 2019-11-21 15:39:22 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/414723003 Maya Cole https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/415045780 1) raising awareness

2) the target audience is people who aren't educated on women's issues and the government

3) pretty much addresses root cause because it is trying to evoke change in the government

2. the target audience is the members of the burke community who juul
3. it does not address the root cause because people aren't taking it seriously and also it is just educating people about the dangers of juuling it is not actually actively doing anything to stop people from juuling]]> 2019-11-22 02:38:45 UTC https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/415069939 Helen J-H https://padlet.com/conc1/gfvwfby8wzzr/wish/417350742 1) public awareness / education
