The AFSC Twin Cities Healing Justice Program’s winter intensive, “Giving Back,” went very well. Fifteen youth from North Community High School in Minneapolis took part.
One of the exercises asked youth to think about characteristics of their role models. Most youth named their fathers and said that love and support from their families is most important to them.
Youth then visited the Capri Theater to develop presentations share their videos with their role models. They also produced letters and videos to their future selves. The young people loved that.
Brynne Crockett, AFSC Program Director, said she knows there’s a place and time for youth to learn about activism and organizing skills. But in the heart of North Minneapolis, it’s important first to ask youth to think about what inspires them.
Prescott Jones and Maddie Foss of AFSC handled much of the facilitation for the intensive.
