Lily Hamilton - Fabian Debora - Week 11 Assignment

1. Fabian kept saying that we can't ask the people we are working with to be vulnerable immediately. I really appreciated that, actors are often asked to be vulnerable with people they don't know and we perform in front of strangers and that's really difficult and I really liked that Fabian acknowledged how difficult that is and said that we have to be gentle with people who aren't used to that.
2. I mostly grew up in LA and I've witnessed the gentrification of it and I've had friends in similar situations to Fabian and there's been gentrification in my hometown. So I really liked that Fabian acknowledged that doing art in his community and engaging his community in that art is an important tool to help combat gentrification and displacement in communities. 
3. I loved hearing Fabian talk about his family, specifically his mother. I loved that he really stressed how important family is to him and how important family is to young people and their development as they grow up.
