Marlo: Difficult Partnerships
"We were told that we were being damaging to these youth because we weren’t telling them that they shouldn’t be expressing their rage at the police in this way. That they should be told that they should walk into the police station and ask for a reconciliation options and what-not. And who are we to tell youth what their therapeutic process is or what their process of rage and healing is."
Neil: A New Pair of Kicks
"It’s a lot more likely for one of the participants to not show up because they’ve got to go to Footlocker and buy a new pair of kicks! That’s a lot more realistic, and more common for that to be the reason."
Neil: Cultural Contexts and Out of School Learning
"I think a lot of them, when they come to our program, because we create that safe environment for their after school, it makes a lot of sense that they come and they want to unload all this stuff."
Neil: 'I'm The Boss!'
"It was just like, these kids are so incredibly intelligent when they’re engaged in that discussion. They’re still going to act a fool, and act like their regular selves and be like, “I’m the boss!” even after that."
