Don’t ask
Brandy, 17, wishes people would stop bugging her about her race and be more interested in who, not what, she is. WITH INTERVIEWS.

Finding my faith

Raymond, 18, realized after trying so many different things that brought him down that God was the one he needed. For that reason he drew this comic about his life.

I also kicked it with gang members. In fights I felt tough and with gangs I felt accepted. But when I was by myself, I knew what I’d done was wrong. I was sad and angry.

Comic by Raymond Carrillo, 18, Polytechnic HS (2008 graduate)
