“…If only one side gave any input into every topic, then we would not be where we are as a community. Give an example of what you would like to see instead, rather than just saying ‘no.'”
-Michael Gorman “Millennial’s Interest in Govt. Spurs Participation.” N.p., n.d. Web. 11 Apr. 2016.
Michael Gorman has the mentality of a strong-minded millennial who wants his rational voice heard. As your class blog editor, I find the above quote completely relevant when I face personal obstacles, be them small or large. When Michael learned about opposition from leaders about bike lines lining along Bloomington’s Main St., he aimed to encourage others to speak their mind instead of shooting down ideas.
Way to go, Michael! Your participation in the community is inspirational to us all!
