Sooo, I have had tremendous leeway in my Canadian Studies english class this term. The prof, who I'm pretty sure has a crush on me (but thats another thread, another time), has let me respond creatively to every prompt we've had. As a substitute for my term essay she let me do a kind of mini photo essay accompanied by a 1500 word write up (if people want to read it I'll post it). The photos are from Vancouver's Lower East Side (aka Canada's worst neighbourhood and home of the murder victims of the now notorious serial killer Robert Pickton) and are generally centered around my own journey down there and my goal of seeking out humanity in an area constantly regarded as "the other." Here's a link to the heavily captioned set in flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/31482950@N08/sets/72157623578483551/ (some are older but like half were uploaded tonight)
