Jahronto

Photo series that documents the Jamaican community in the city of Toronto.

Living in culturally diverse Toronto as a Jamaican-Canadian means I come across reminders of my Jamaican culture every now and then. These photos are from places and spaces I visited where there was a strong Jamaican presence; many of them were taken in the Little Jamaica neighbourhood on Eglington West - which is now threatened by gentrification.
