Voices of the Street: Without Prejudice
No full textYvonne Mark (Nisga\u27a-Gitxsan) was born in Haida Gwaii.Her parents had moved the family there so Yvonne wouldn\u27t have to go to residential school. She came to Vancouver when she was 16. In addition to her volunteer work at Carnegie Community Centre, Yvonne is a Megaphone vendor and member of Megaphone\u27s Speakers Bureau, working to end stigma around substance use. She has taken part in Megaphone\u27s Community Journalism 101 writing workshop, held in partnership with SFU\u27s Vancity Office of Community Engagement, and is an outspoken advocate for the Downtown Eastside. Dennis Gates (Haida), at 60 years old, has lived in the Downtown Eastside for 25 years. He says he is proud to still be learning new things about himself.As a participant in Megaphone\u27s recent writing workshops for people with lived experience of incarceration — offered through a partnership with the UBC Transformative Health and Justice Research Cluster — Dennis was able to explore and express himself for the first time since being released from a federal institution in 1996, about what it was like to go to prison."The first thing you do when you finish a long bit in prison is sit down on the sidewalk and cry," Dennis says. "A 10-year sentence is frightening to remember, but these workshops, and all the people involved, have shown me a new confidence. And if this work can help someone inside not give up hope, then I am honoured."
