Our Family Journeys 		Overview - Youth
Radio Project 2008


Last winter 2006-2007, youTHink student interns explored discrimination and targeting at school and on a personal level. To begin, interns conducted research for one week at their schools, recording and analyzing all the incidents they heard of slurs, name calling, and putdowns (targeting). After examining targeting in the larger context of their schools and social circles, interns examined the personal effects of targeting on their lives. Each intern identified an experience when they were targeted, when they participated in targeting someone else, or when they were a witness to targeting.

Listen to them tell the stories, and what they hope listeners will learn from their experiences, in this first edition of youTHink on Air.
