Review of At Risk Youth Design Sweatshop-Free Fashions

A solid news magazine piece about youth message-driven art making a statement against sweatshop labor. It's inspiring to hear about youth care about who makes the Nike sneakers and the conditions they work under. This is a very positive piece and could fit in any magazine show. The local tie-in is that we all wear clothing that is potentially created by sweat shop labor. This one act by youth to highlight that reality is an important statement.
