So Ethan, my supervisor here at YPI suggested a possible change in perspectives for this final project. Because what I'm noticing a lot here is not actually related to gender and sexuality here, but rather class and race, he suggests that I look closer at that.
Originally I went into this thinking that the biggest problem I was going to notice were issues surrounding sexuality and gender. Actually, I've begun to notice that more often than not, the youths that come in the space are more interested in getting resources that relate closer to class issue - issues with income, housing, finding food - and racial issues - 80% of the youth who come through our doors are youth of color.
