David Schneider was born in the traditional and current territories of the K’o’mks First Nation and raised in the traditional and current territory of the Quw’utsun people.<\/p>\n

The largest takeaway I had from creating this book was the power that exists when people come together and focus on their strengths in a community that can support their strengths.<\/p>\n

Double Major in Sociology and Women and Gender Studies<\/p>\n

My main takeaway from this collaborative book experience would be the amount of diversity we have seen through the process of coming together as a class, which is now being showcased through this literature. With everyone having various interests of research and intersectional backgrounds guiding our goals, this project has allowed for an array of creativity and diverse knowledge to shine through. All of our pieces hold individual value that share or touch on one of our own personal narratives. In the end, while each piece has its own merits, we have been able to collectively create an entire book, nay, a piece of art that is expansive and continues the conversation of gender through an intersectional lens.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t
