Jos: Youth Power
"I can go into a classroom and ask the teacher to leave and watch everybody just let their hair down and relax and talk about things in front of me."
Christina: In-Between, and Angry
"Why would they do it? Exactly, and they must have been upset for so many years, for generations, and then finally, like we’re going to peacefully protest. Fuck that. We’re going to burn some cars because we’re angry!"
Christina: Funding Issues
"The challenge is always trying to come back to the work that we already do and validate that. I mean, why are we ashamed of this? Why do have we have to like - prove to all of these people that we’re just as good, it not better?"
Christina: Getting Into Schools
'Well, with the school board, it’s, how will I describe it? It’s a non-relationship right now, like we’re not really with them. Ironically enough, the ministry wants us to be in a relationship with them. They’re like, “You guys need to date the EMSB. When are you guys going for dinner?” And we're like, "We’ve been waiting to go for dinner for a long time!"'
Christina: Youth in Context
"I mean, in some cases, they give me the, “Oh my God. You’re so amazing. You’re so young. Oh my God, you’re so young.” And I feel like they’re going to like pinch my cheeks. I’m kind of creeped out by it."
