On the Topic of Progress on the Final Project...

Research is going just fine for now, in the sense that there is little that I really need help with. I have yet to start the Neatline exhibit, which, yes, I did ultimately decide to go through with. Neatline just feels like it will be better suited to conveying the wide span of time and space that civil disobedience stories compose. I have gathered a decent amount of potential sources, and at this point, I'm considering using practically every potential source to have a sizeable collage of information on the Neatline exhibit. 

Learning about the stand against unjust authority across time is interesting to look at, and has been and, unfortunately, will always be relevant. It gives insight into the potential responses to abuse of authority, and how we can modify these methodologies to suit contemporary situations. That being said, I don't find very much entertainment or enjoyment from the process; it might be more fulfilling if research topics connected like dominos, or opened up into a rabbit hole, but these are largely separate and take a while to find the meat and potatoes of a story.

Honestly, I think that getting all the information onto Neatline will be easy, and supplementary images and the like will be equally simple. I can't say for certain how well I'm doing, as I don't really have a goal for how many sources I want at the end, I just intend to keep going and get as much clear, descriptive, and relevant sources that I can. Naturally, since my topic is about rebelling against institutional injustice, every story that we've read so far in class will be applicable, and they are decently varied in time and space of creation.

Overall, I'm feeling just fine about the project, and the more sources the merrier, at least in this case.
