The challenge was to match the intensity of the work and emotions that the Street Poets organization brings out in these complex youth.
With Jonathon Hexnor's photography leading a group of amazing photo storytellers, this thing was off to a good start. Careful editing of the student voice to include a range of topics and intensity levels helped bring a dynamic voice to the mix. My job was the easy part. Picking through so many amazing things. What a week.
