“Hope is a discipline”: Outreach in the midst of social murder | Generation Homeless, Episode 4

In this episode, Lorraine discusses her experience as an outreach worker for Sanctuary Toronto, and her hope that people become more curious about the social policies that lead to homelessness, and ultimately premature and preventable death. At a time of immense loss, Lorraine, to echo Mariame Kaba, is focused on hope as a discipline, and the belief that current realities can and should be better.   

Despite the constant call to shelter in place, within Tkaronto/Toronto, more than 8,000 people remain unhoused. Generation Homeless is a series dedicated to the crises that rampant real estate speculation created across Turtle Island; particularly as lived and experienced by youth.
