Reflections on Group Presentations:

The group presentations provided interesting topics to consider when writing my case study on my city. My city was not directly mentioned in the chapters presented. The topics of Latinos in urban communities and food injustice would be great topics to discuss during my case study. 57% of Paterson's population is hispanic so it would be interesting to see their role in this urban community. Furthermore, when thinking about food injustice, there are several food pantries currently present in Paterson, NJ serving those in need. When I have visited Paterson, from experience, I never came across many supermarkets in the area. I noticed more smaller grocery stores present on the main street. This is a topic that could be expanded upon to see a first hand example of food insecurity in an urban community like Paterson for example.
