International Business, Times. “Occupy Atlanta Protesters Ignore Police Order to Leave Woodruff Park.” International Business Times Nov. 0010: Regional Business News. Web. 2 Feb. 2016.

International Business Times, an online news publication, reports in their article, “Occupy Atlanta Protesters Ignore Police Order to Leave Woodruff Park” that “Several hundred protesters [occupied] Woodruff Park in Atlanta…in the latest outgrowth of a national movement that began [the previous month] with Occupy Wall Street.” They provide statements from the protest representatives involved and their reasons for protest, while explaining how they relate to historical views of Martin Luther King Jr in his “Letter from a Birmingham Jail” in 1963.” They also shed light on similar protests that occur in other cities, such as Boston, Chicago, and Los Angeles. The intended audience for this article would be someone interested in historical occurrences of civil rights activism in Atlanta and it would be a useful source for them to use as an example of this.

Annotated Bibliography 3 (unit one)

Reitzes, Donald C. et al. “Home or Office? The Homeless and Atlanta’s Downtown Park.” Sociological Focus 48.1 (2015): 28–48. Web. 4 Feb. 2016.

In the article “Home or Office? The Homeless and Atlanta’s Downtown Park”, authors Donald C. Reitzes, Timothy J. Crimmins, Johanna Yarbrough, and Josie Parker, of Georgia State University completed a case study which claims that ” as a general use space, the homeless did not identify the park as “home,” but did use it for their private purposes.” This claim is supported with research conducted by the authors on how the space is used by homeless people, based on symbolism, special characteristics of the area, activities they do in the park and the general use of the park. The purpose of this article is to provide information on how homeless people take the park and use it as a resource to complete their everyday activities. This article would be a useful source for other scholars doing research on the living conditions of homeless people in Atlanta.
