My Incarcerated Family by Samantha Zazueta by City High Radio

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
When I asked my mom why so many people in our family have been incarcerated, she said it was "poor choices." But I wanted to know why. Why do people make bad choices? And does prison teach people to make good choices?

Hiding In Plain Sight: My Life As A Homeless Teen by Michelle Aguilar Ramirez

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
There are over 12,000 people in Seattle and King County experiencing homelessness. Many of them, including families, live in vehicles. When I was in 8th grade, my mom and I became homeless, and we lived in our car. I want to tell this story because the person you might least expect could be one of those 12,000 homeless people in the Seattle area.
When it comes to the issue of homelessness it impacts everyone around the world, whether you think it impacts you or not it truly does. This specific story speaks on one of those homeless individuals who were suffering in silence. I created this story in KUOW’s RadioActive Youth Media program.

I like how they talk about Social Media and how there needs more bans on some posts.  Even though Social Media is a fun place to be it can also be bad.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how the girl got the opinion of a professional before taking action. I also like how she talked about how these memes are harmful and create a negative environment for people who see them.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how the girl talked to many different people in her family and got the opinion of everyone as an individual. She kind of put the message out there to learn from your mistakes and I appreciate that.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how she is putting the problem out there for drugs and she informing people that it is not okay to encourage people tom take drugs as a rapper because you are an influencer and people will listen to influencers and do what they say.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how she played music at the beginning and end but not while they were talking because the music they play while talking I find distracting and off topic. This podcast was very straightforward and gets right to the point which I really enjoyed. She is talking about this book written by a black woman about a black women who is not getting treated fairly she has to go on trial and the judge is a white man saying she is innocent while on the side there are a dozen black men calling this women guilty.

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
I like how she got a point of view from many of her relatives. I like how she picked a topic that people don't really talk about and it is something that her family struggles with.

# data[].attributes.body
i liked how they used other voices to use and talk about if it is a problem or is is it a good thing and i like how she pointed out that she could see other cultures and other places and they can see other peoples lives. they also pointed out how hate comments could hurt a person really bad

# data[].attributes.body
i liked how she kept giving us information after the man was talking about his life and how she explained what was going on in his life and i liked how the person was talking about how he had no choice and had to start his new life.

# data[].attributes.body
i like how it was true about all of it

# data[].attributes.body
it was cool how she was saying things she thought

# data[].attributes.body
Some people make memes like these for attention or just to feel like they want to fit in. It is not funny to play with things like this because there are people who actually have it.

# data[].attributes.body
l gave her own opinion after she got to see the different perspectives. She didn't just jump to conclusions like most people do. I also liked how she talked to a bunch of family members.

I liked how she was speaking openly about what she though in her head .

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how they were speaking up about problems that are happening on social media nowadays.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how she had her point of view on it all but each of her family members said there's as well.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how they talked about funny memes for like depression or others that they can relate to and how the girl shares a lot of funny memes that they can relate to with her brother, I also really liked how she went to that therapist and asked him if these memes are actually not bad to look at them so they stopped sending memes and unfollowed all of the memes.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how they talked about their family and their mistakes that they made in life.

# data[].attributes.body
This podcast was one of my favourties, I liked this because the person that wrote this didnt only use their voice they used a lot of people and got their opinions on social media, and social media is really nice because you get to contact your friends and family, but there are a lot of people who get bullied over social media and i think that its very wrong.

# data[].attributes.body
She is using facts in a way about depression memes and when u see one u could see it an many different ways and having interviews with the doctor and she had music in the begging and has a note book that has what she gonna talk about which then next time she will have new things to talk about.

# data[].attributes.body
He did drugs and was in gang activity which then got him in jail which is not a good place to be and could ruin ur chance to get a job and he learned in prison that he was a bad guy and he should not do what he did and he regrets about him doing and he served 5 years in prison

# data[].attributes.body
she uses a story to tell a story which is a good way and she telling a story of a annoying high schooler and should tell the pricpal and she never did because she was scared and she has a big thing of insecure about her self

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how she had music at the beginning and i also liked how she explained the depression memes and how she explains what she thinks.
