Though interpersonal violence is widely studied, much less has been
done to understand structural violence, the often-invisible
patterns of inequality that reproduce social relations of exclusion
and marginalization through ideologies, policies, stigmas, and
discourses attendant to gender, race, class, and other markers of
social identity. Structural violence normalizes experiences like
poverty, ableism, sexual harassment, racism, and colonialism, and
erases their social and political origins. The legal structures
that provide impunity for those who exploit youth are also part of
structural violence's machinery. Working with Indigenous, queer,
immigrant and homeless youth across Canada, this five-year
Youth-based Participatory Action Research project used art to
explore the many ways that structural violence harms youth,
destroying hope, optimism, a sense of belonging and a connection to
civil society. However, recognizing that youth are not merely
victims, Everyday Violence in the Lives of Youth also examines the
various ways youth respond to and resist this violence to preserve
their dignity, well-being and inclusion in society.
