Far From The Heart

Far From The Heart is a step in the right direction to help our youth create environments that nurture safe relationships. Created in collaboration with teens for teens, the project explores dating violence, sexual assault and safe relationships- giving audiences the knowledge needed to resolve conflict, negotiate relationships and avoid risk. FFTH is delivered through forum-style theatre in schools, an interactive film online, and dialogue in partnership with a broad community network of schools, social services, health care and justice providers.

I feel like talking always brings us closer to understanding, rather than dividing us. It can be tough, it can be a little nauseating, we don’t always have the right vocabulary to talk across our differences, but the talking is always better than the ignoring.

Exactly why I care so much about bringing all sorts of shit up about racism, misogyny, rape culture, heterosexism, ableism, etc.
