Hello, my name is Annabelle, and I'm a 16-year-old writer-to-be from Canada.  In my blog posts, I will do my best to share relevant, up-to-date information about social and political issues that primarily affect and concern young adults.  I will explore topics such as racism, gender inequality, homelessness in small cities, homophobia, and discrimination against disability.  My goal is only to raise awareness to matters that I feel are important and/or noteworthy.  It is not my intent to try and persuade readers into believing what I believe.  My information is heavily based on facts from trustworthy sources, however, my own bias will still be included in some ways.
