  • What are the goals of your intervention and why is this intervention needed?

– My goal for the invention is for BIPOC families to become more self aware of their role in their family member lives who are also part of the LGBTQ+ community. I believe the intervention is needed because coming from experience, I feel that BIPOC families are less lenient when to come to the topic of LGBTQ+ community and believe that history has to repeat itself but it shouldn’t have to.

  • What “data” or material will your intervention be based on?

-The material the intervention will be based on is research from past articles and surveys but also current zines that can be expressive yet positive when it comes to creativity and information.

  • What will you produce? What are you going to do?

-What I will produce is a zine which will be filled with pictures, quotes and information on how BIPOC families can become more aware of their roles in their families whom are also in the LGBTQ+ community, so that if their role is an negative aspect, they can tried to be a more positive role for an better outcome.

  • Why is this the form that your project will take? What is the justification?-  Zines is the better form for my project because in my experience, zines are used to express yet also for information to pass on to others so that it can have a better outcome but it’s also another way for people to be creative with what they want to show.

  • What are the goals of your intervention and why is this intervention needed?

The goal of my intervention is to expose the in discrimination that takes place within the healthcare system and how it is a known problem with little to no changes. This intervention is needed because access to healthcare should not be a issue, discrimination because of your sexual orientation or gender identity should also not be an issue. Both parties need to be understanding and open minded. We have to understand why people act the way they do and why its a problem along with why the way they act is a problem.

  • What “data” or material will your intervention be based on?

My intervention data and material will be from articles online as well as case studies and research papers. I want to include statistics and real life experiences.

  • What will you produce? What are you going to do?

I’m thinking about do a zine, pamphlet type of thing. Inside of it I will include information on the issue with statistics, and solutions. I want my project to be creative and informative. I want to help Both sides gain knowledge as to why people might act the way they do but also why it is a problem to be that way.

  • Why is this the form that your project will take? What is the justification?

I am doing my project in this way because when people want information the respect pamphlets and other little things that give information. When brainstorming ideas I decided that this would be a cute route to take but it is also informative. I feel like people pay attention to the little things. people usually want things straight to the point and fact but it also has to be creative and grab attention.
