This project was inspired by the importance of the "front porch" as holding a culturally significant space for community dialogue in New Orleans. Youth involved in this workshop were asked to make a statement and create a dialogue with viewers of the Hip Hop Teen + Prospect.1 Special Edition Magazine about important needs in the process of rebuilding their community. These are a selection of photos taken in front of their homes.
