It seems like a sentiment analysis on the notes for each event is a dead end. While it’s technically possible, the notes lack many words that carry strong positive or negative connotations. Upon further inspection, the notes column doesn’t actually contain articles about the protests, but rather facts about it organized into a paragraph.
Because of this I’ve decided to switch my focus over to grouping the types of people and organizations associated with protests. Once I have this, there are many different relationships I can look into such as who participates in the most violent protests or which group amasses the largest number of total protesters.
