Contrasts abound in North America as we move north to south, and east to west. No frame is alike, no city or town looks like the other. From the snow-capped mountains and turquoise lakes of Canada and the pulsating energy of the U.S. coastal cities to the winding streets and colourful apartments of Mexico, North America is a multi-faceted gem.

It’s important to remember that North America as we know it, is a result of imperialistic rule, horrid yet strategic colonization practices, and, of course, deep-rooted capitalism. It’s a challenge to perspectivize the space without remembering how much suffering and carnage its native people went through, for the continent to be shaped as it is today.
