Description
The pictures used in this book do not belong to me. What happens when the system fails us, when we are judged based on looks and we are factions, when most are beautiful and some are un-beautiful. What happens when some are loveless and some are bathed in it. Those with the biggest smiles are those with broken souls. Is it a crime, to rebel, to love, to lust. Adeyo Carter an art and cultural enthusiast, lives in modern day North Carolina, she faces struggles as an African-American student, independent and studious, she looks past the comment on her weight and bullying of her bunkmates in the rundown YWCA building that provides shelter for them.
