needed to protect what they love. These rights will exist to make sure that the people’s interest will survive in the public eye.

Article 1: It is known to nature that the earth or land has no heir nor owner, therefore anyone shall blister

building a home to have.

Article 2: It is correct that man is able to use sickles and machetes to cut grass in order make a living.

Appendix Article 1. In Pilsen, prices on renting or buying a house is getting high pretty fast. This cause many low-working class to move elsewhere because they can’t afford the rent or own a property.

Article 2. Jobs in Pilsen becomes harder to do knowing that their income is not able to take care of their family costs. That leaves them one only option and that is to move to another neighborhood.

Article 3. This article explains what on one of the rights that people in Pilsen and that also includes undocumented immigrants.

Article 4. This article mainly came from my experience in Pilsen, I saw many colors and piece of arts that brought joy to the Pilsen community. People there have a nice cultured place and they are happy most of the times.

Article 5. Education in Pilsen is offered to anyone but not all of the education is equal, public education does not have a good quality as private. I believe that every human being should have access to education not matter where they are.

Article 6. Spending money is something we all do every single day. I used this right to show that people in Pilsen and everyone can buy anything they desire, as long it didn’t harm another man.

Article 7. I specifically put this right on the list because I saw that not many people are talking about gentrification that is going on in Pilsen. I believed that one of the things that people in Pilsen need to do is protest to the City hall to halt with their renewal plan.
