Everyone has a story to tell, and when you create opportunities for those stories to be told and listened to, something amazing starts to happen. In early 2018, men and women of color sat down at CTV Studios in Roseville, MN to speak about a time when they have been personally discriminated against and how that has shaped their lives. Moderated by Nyia Harris, these narratives have been turned into a documentary film.

Home Feeling: Struggle for a Community

Documentary

1983

This feature documentary takes us to the heart of the Jane-Finch "Corridor" in the early 1980s. Covering six square blocks in Toronto's North York, the area readily evokes images of vandalism, high-density subsidized housing, racial tension, despair and crime. By focusing on the lives of several of the residents, many of them black or members of other visible minorities, the film provides a powerful view of a community that, contrary to its popular image, is working towards a more positive future.
