The City of Saskatoon is trying to shed some light on racism.

This week, the city officially launched I am the Bridge, a multimedia campaign designed to share people's stories and insights on their experiences with racism.

"Building a city where all people can succeed starts with building relationships and a shared understanding," said Mayor Charlie Clark in a news release. "These conversations are crucial to collectively build an inclusive community."

The project asked citizens to submit videos sharing their experiences, and the most powerful quotes were used to create the campaign.

The city made a video of the responses, and haslaunched an ad campaign.
