To get started thinking about community, you have 5 things you are doing....

1.  Why do  you think people don't get more involved in the issues that are around them, esp. issues that are related to cities?    Pick the best 3 reasons that you came up with that you think you want to write about...

Keep in mind that you should try to avoid picking reasons that are similar to each other. Once you pick the 3 best that you like, write up 3-4-5 sentences for each one, expanding the discussion of each. (You are essentially creating the topics sentences for each reason.)

2 Pls watch this cool video about this concept called "Participatory Budgeting."

Once you watch it, go back to the reasons you came up with for why people don't get more involved 

For each of the reasons you came up with, ask yourself  "Does this movie address (and maybe even solve) the reason?  I think you will find that a LOT of the issues you came up with for why people don't get involved are addressed by this movie....
