00:00That motivates me is that the fact that I'm able to express myself and my feelings and sometimes that helps
00:06people be able to express themselves too so it helps me feel more expressed and seen and as well as
00:16make me feel good that I'm also helping others express themselves.
00:20I believe there definitely should be spaces for youth that are kind of third spaces because there's not any right
00:25now.
00:25I think y'all folks should have extra spaces depending on the neighborhood circumstances because not everyone gets the opportunity
00:33to go home and express how they feel, doing business, art, music and things like that.
00:39I do believe that you should have a third space because you know as young teenagers we want to be

01:13want to get away from home? What if you want to get away from home? Like get away from all
01:16the drama that's at home? Like what if you just like want to hang out with your friends?
01:23Some of the things that I enjoy a lot in my life are just simply just creating art. I love
01:30everything from it between like fashion, metalworking, doing 3D, doing murals, everything about art, you know, doing writing, filmmaking, everything
01:41about it is something that I just truly enjoy.
