As a topic for young writers, "The Golden Rule" is one sure to bring up a lot of good questions especially from youth that attend a poorly funded public high school. The topics addressed by these students, who participated in workshops at 826 Valencia in San Francisco, range from global issues, street violence, or how to relate to and behave with friends and family. The essays are well written, inspiring, and easy to read.
