In this news report about the Excelsior District in which i live in myself i am fearful now for my family and my neighbors. This is the first time that the violence in the excelsior community has been recognized by the media and now the police is working with our community to make it a harmless and comfortable environment again. Growing up i didnt have to worry about my safety, but today it seems we have to watch out because anything can happen. "I think that there's a lot more violence lately. I feel that they aren't doing much about it" said Adrina Arenas a student from burton and also a resident in the Excelsior, "It doesn't seem like police are doing there job!". Many police cars are seen everyday driving around, but i ask what does that do?

Great work with the design and story. You hit a relevant issue with students at our school and in the community near us. It is a relevant point that the media has begun covering the violence that has been going on in the Excelsior. Do you think the violence has always been there or is it just the media drawing attention to it recently? I like the quote you included from a student at Burton. That makes the article in touch with its readers. You built some rapport with them.
Did you check out Kaisha's or Jamie's articles? Ulises has a new article on the shooting of a young Latino councilman who was senselessly murdered in Fairfield.
