Activism Blog #2

After making details to our project, we were able to upload our proposal and sucessfully start our facebook page. Or facebook page is mainly geared to enhance our opportunity in addressing and spreading the word of our project, the first ever National Women's Holiday. We did have some trouble early on. We all became administrators in our projects in order to update our page and make it as diverse as possible, along with adding quotes. Early on our quotes that we enacted had the sole purpose of sparking discussion and awareness about our goal. Yet, after some controversial quotes, we stopped putting them up since we all felt that they were causing a distraction and chaos. Many people who were in support and especially those people against our purpose felt really distracted and hurt by some of the quotes. We decided to slow down the process of the qoutes and redirect our facebook page to a more positive image, Alice Paul, our original plan.
