Slow Start at WSCC

The first few days at West Side Catholic Center (WSCC) were really pretty slow.  We didn't find a single lady that wanted to talk to us so we spent some time babysitting some children while their parents were at an employment clinic and we spent a lot of time at home.  We left early when nobody agreed to be interviewed by us.  There seems to be a great difference in these women compared to the men we encountered at 2100 and North Point.  I don't know if the difference is solely due to gender but it seems like the women are far more conservative when it comes to sharing their stories.  Another difference about WSCC is that it is much cleaner than either of the first places we went to.  It has rooms specifically for art and for teens and for small children.  Their's also a community room where the interviews were planned to be held.  The good news about having so much down time is that we had a lot of unexpected time for editing all of the film that we had already.  There's already a lot of film, and we're having trouble narrowing down what we want in the video because so much of it is so good.  This video is getting long.
