The community’s school provide s courses up to the Grade 8 level only\, so there are no other options for young people who want to continue their education. Some of the young men are able to work on the construction of the road\, a rare opportunity to h ave a good job in the community. The pride of the youth in doing this work is palpable\, and they express the gratification that comes with providin g safety for their Elders and opportunities for future generations. Despit e the systemic and personal racism they’ve already experienced\, Freedom Road gives the youth a sense of optimism and instills hope in them for th e future of their community and their own ability to contribute.\n\n \ ; ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://events.nfb.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/10 /EPK_tempMainimage_Road.jpg CATEGORIES:Festivals LOCATION:TIFF Bell Lightbox\, Cinema 3\, 350 King St W\, Toronto\, Ontario\ , M5V 3X5\, Ontario\, Canada GEO:43.64660980000001;-79.3903459 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=350 King St W\, Toronto\, O ntario\, M5V 3X5\, Ontario\, Canada;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=TIFF Bell L ightbox\, Cinema 3:geo:43.64660980000001,-79.3903459 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/New_York X-LIC-LOCATION:America/New_York BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20190310T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0400 TZNAME:EDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
