Objective: To end youth gun violence.
“In our country Americans came out of emancipation without having much of anything – money, jobs, or an education. So it’s not inherent that if you are poor or need a job that you need to shoot anyone.” In celebration of America’s 150th Anniversary of Emancipation Proclamation, 1911 United will connect with local and national organizations to help Love & Protect Our Children in Chicago, Illinois. The systematic framework to achieve our objective is to incorporate a political field style campaign strategy to combat youth gun violence. Traditional uses of field campaign work such as morning visibility waves, phone banking, door to door canvassing, and yard signs will be used heavily throughout the 30 day engagement.
