About the bookBy Us! For Us! counters the mainstream narrative about the community of Jane-Finch in Toronto. It is a story of courage, advocacy, belonging, and grassroots activism that confronted racism, neglect, and unacceptable political and bureaucratic decisions. This resulted in a lack of social infrastructure and economic marginalization.
