YYZ in the 90s

 

 

I suppose that all of struggling to articulate a culture of diversity, from whatever identity and location we make speak from, finds resonance in one of these two positions. For either we must begin to speak a memory of conquest, to insist that this memory forms part of the historical consciousness of our country or we must seek to acknowledge the repressions of a colonial history and try to come to terms with past imperialisms. And I believe that it is the process of positionality, of re-positioning the interrelationship of geography and space, of history and place, that offers me, and hopefully others, an imagination of where one's location is here, in this city, what one's relationship is to both a local and global culture.
