When it comes to the upcoming passion blogs I will be writing, I decided I will focus on the state of New York hip hop and rap. Music is a really important part of my life, and the majority of artists I listen too are from New York, so I think I would enjoy writing about new music releases from my favorite artists. New York really has its own sounds when it comes to the rap game, so it will be fairly different from other music blogs people write. I will update the readers on new releases in New York music, and I will review the songs and explain what I like/dislike about them. On the other hand, for the civic issues blog, I am going to focus on racial injustice in the criminal justice system. First off, this topic is very relevant to me right now because I am taking a criminal justice class, so I can talk about some of the things I learn in class. Secondly, I believe racial injustice in our criminal justice system is a very important topic in todays society, as many people are being discriminated against by the courts and are being treated unfairly by the government.
Cool topics! I’m especially interested in your civic issues topic choice. I think it will be a fascinating read for your classmates and me! – VP
