Updates!

Hey guys! So i haven't really posted in a while so this is just a post to let everyone know what I have been up to. I have completed all my fieldnotes. Observing them really helped me figure out what direction I want to go with with this project. An important aspect of Sullies is that it is located in an irish neighborhood. This was evident when i was observing Sullies and i think that the location of Sullies is important to its success. I dove deeper into this thought with my textual analysis. I found scholarly sources discussing the irish immigration and their settlement in South Boston. the inhabitants of south boston formed a strong community and they are proud of it. I think that is why they are loyal to Sullies and why it is so important. I have also completed my first interview! but i will make a separate blog post about that. All in All everything is coming together. ideas and themes that i want to further pursue and discuss are formulating. I am excited with the direction this project is going!
