I love hearing people speak and hear different perspectives on certain topics. I think everyone did an amazing job and Donna Murch was a very good speaker and her speech was very informative. After sitting at home it took a while for me to think about how this event could relate to something we talked about in class, but then it hit me.

Framing the civil rights as the struggles we had still aren't gone and showing us the similarities of then and now really help people to see that we still have problems and things haven't changed like we thought. Learning about framing and agenda setting really opened up my mind and has me seeing things for what they really are now and I enjoy applying those concepts to such a powerful event that
