Growing Up in a Divided Society

One of the key unanswered questions related to youth violence and tolerance is the effect of social diversity on daily experience. By examining children's political imagery, this project significantly expands existing work on troubled and neglected youth in Northern Ireland, South Africa, and the Middle East. The current changing political context within Northern Ireland reflects that a process of peace-building has begun and that integrated schooling is an important cornerstone of that process.

The Psychopomps

Janzen Hakkinen is ready to end his life. As he approaches thirty, sobriety, a job and medication have done little to divert him from this decision. And there's one building in Baltimore that has become a monument for those willing to scale its eleven stories to finally meet the concrete below. The Psychopomps tells the story of the men and women whose final acts of volition were stolen from them by the reclusive owner of the abandoned building. While his intentions are unclear, the collected group navigates their days combating their past, fearing the present violence of a maniac and weighing the ultimate choice of how their stay together will end. There is one way in and one way out - and it's not through the front doors.
