The intersection of Jane and Finch in Toronto's north end has long been portrayed as one of Canada's most troubled neighbourhoods, with images of social dysfunction, shootings and "at risk" youth dominating media accounts. Setting out to discover what it means - and what it takes - to grow up in this economically disadvantaged and racially and ethnically diverse neighbourhood, Life at the Intersection engages young people, parents and educators to explore the experiences, issues, perceptions and ambitions of the youth of this community. What Carl James finds is that young people have come to appreciate the social capital and cultural wealth of their neighbourhood and that they use the negative perceptions of their community as inspiration for educational and social success. Understanding education as key to encouraging youth to persevere, endure and succeed, this book focuses on youth's educational experiences and expectations and argues that schooling programs must consider socio-geographic context in their efforts to be socially and culturally relevant.

This is an eclectic mix of short reminiscences and daydreams of the future. The stories move from the author's brief memories of a bygone time, through his youth and early adulthood to his dreams and hopes for his family in the future. Let the author's imagination take you back to your own childhood--not walking on the cracks in the pavements or crossing a puddle-strewn street without getting your feet wet. The book is in two distinct sections: the first section deals with the author's youth, and the second section brings the reader up to date and beyond.
