6. Directions
We got on the Red Line to 95th/Dan Ryan at the Granville stop and transferred at Roosevelt to the Green Line to Cottage Grove and got off at the Garfield stop
From the Garfield stop we took the 55 bus east to University of Chicago campus and we got off at the intersection of 55th street and Lake Park

7. Social Justice, Privilege, and Oppression
We noticed at the bus station that there were these murals on the wall
Example of speaking out against gender oppression
In history, Hyde Park was primarily white, but changed demographics when segregation ended
University of Chicago did a large neighborhood revamp, forcing lower income out, changed demographics to mostly white in certain areas of Hyde Park, the privilege of the wealthier people prevailed

8. Reflections
Through this experience we each recognized different viewpoints we have on the world due to our exposure to different places we went that have different culture
