The Recording Aspect Of The Taping Assignment Allowed Me

The recording aspect of the taping assignment allowed me to understand the process and value of advocacy. As I was hearing myself speak about oppression and the impact it has on individuals and communities, it allowed me to process my thoughts differently than through a typical writing assignment. I came to the realization that advocacy begins one individual at a time, that a dialogue is the simple first step to solving systems of oppression.

Shortly after, my classmates and I launched the project in a community organization in Montreal. Although the goal of the group itself is to help the Syrian refugees integrate into Canada, my goal, as a representative of the Jewish community is to create a positive alliance between Jews and Arabs.
