Fear of a Black youth. Fear of terrorism. Fear of genocide. In response to fear, The Bridge for Youth moves graciously in love and compassion.  

“Fear is the primary force upholding structures of domination. It promotes the desire for separation, the desire not to be known. When we are taught that safety lies always with sameness, then difference, of any kind, will appear as a threat. When we choose to love we choose to move against fear—against alienation and separation. The choice to love is a choice to connect—to find ourselves in the other.” – bell hooks 

While antisemitism is real, so too is antiblackness. We unequivocally stand against both. The Bridge for Youth forever moves in love, empathy, and solidarity with youth and commUNITY.
