Description:
This short piece raises an honest and complex set of questions about being both a teenager and an immigrant, when fitting in on all fronts seems like the most important thing in the world.
Curie Youth Radio is a writing and radio production class at Curie High School on Chicago's Southwest side.
Here, students create their own stories: fresh takes on everything from snowball fights to gang wars. They see their stories as a way for teenagers in one Chicago high school to reach out to the rest of the world.
