 * Surprisingly the cities Freetown, Sierra Leone and Los Angeles, California have a lot more in common than I thought they would. But they also have many differences. Which was not very mind blowing because I knew there would be many differences. There are many problems in both of these cities. Such as in Los Angeles they have many homeless in the streets, some parts are in poverty, and was the murder capital for many years in the united states. But Freetown, Sierra is facing bigger challenges, in Freetown for many years it was ruled by rebels of the country storming the streets killing and kidnapping people to turn them into rebels. After everything slowed down with that there were still more problems like poverty and HIV, STD’s. But after the whole rebel violence started to stop it left a bunch of old rebels looking to do something so gang violence perked up.
