"The scars of our past have not healed. The legacy of our violent history is still with us, embedded in our culture. It entertains us, it drives many aspects of our capitalistic economy, and it affects our day-to-day interactions with one another.

Why I’m Here

I'm a citizen journalist covering Maine as part of MTV's "2008 Choose or Lose Street Team." Over the course of the next year, I hope give faces to many of the issues at the heart of the upcoming election, removing public policy debates from the realm of statistics and sound bites. I want to tell stories that will inform and, hopefully, inspire action. Maybe I'll even tell yours ...
