From Yuia: Bullying- Back then, she ate Japanese food. People bullied her because they thought her food looked "raw" and "fishy". She knew it was a pun, but she didn't take it as a pun. She took it as what it was- racism and bullying. She ended up leaving the school and going to a private Japanese school.

From Anonymous: Climate Change- Was inspired by the story of the Korean man cleaning a whole lake and wants us to add something about it.

From Angel: Gender Inequality- In some Chinese traditions, the youngest sibling is a girl. Angel is a boy. His parents tried to dress him up as a girl because, in some Chinese traditions, the man gives the woman's family money. This is practically abuse and his parents even said that they wanted him to be transgender. He thinks that people should stop doing this to their children.
