Hi there! I'm 17 years old, and I live in the suburbs about an hour out from Chicago.
Although I'm white and was raised in more of a sheltered community, the friends I have grown
up with have been a major part of my drive to raise awareness for social issues that our society
has worked to erase from the public.

Hi! I'm a 17 year old Mexican girl from Chicago. When I was younger, I was never really aware of the type
of discrimination that existed towards Hispanics and other people of color. As I grew older I
realized people viewed us differently. Although I never faced direct discrimination, the
discrimination that my people receives hurts me. I want people to be aware of the discrimination people outside of the "norm" recieve and inform everyone the wrongs of it.
