In fall 2020, we ran a slam poetry / video production program with immigrant and refugee youth in Douglas College’s Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada program. In this virtual program, new Canadians gathered with Reel Youth facilitators over Zoom, where they were introduced to principles of filmmaking, and created these powerful films about their experiences as newcomers during a pandemic.








In our work we strive to embody what we hope to see in the world—a just humanity and community in which people are free to be themselves fully and without fear. A community where no one is exiled or silenced because of gender, gender expression, race, color, ethnic or national origin, religion, sexual/affectional orientation, age, class, physical character or disability. We believe in the power of storytelling to make connections across difference.
