Crossroads Chronicles

Description

Crossroads is a youth-created interactive 'choose-your-own adventure' graphic novel that drops you into the lives of Jin, Imani, Jack, and Allie—four teenagers navigating intricate interpersonal dynamics at Cross Roads High. Graduation is fast-approaching, and tensions surge as different 'ism's and inherited biases surface and test the students’ bonds with parents, teachers, and each other.

As you move through the intersecting storylines, engage with the reflection prompts, and take in new concepts, you’ll have opportunities to:

• CHOOSE how characters respond to challenging situations

• OBSERVE the impacts of different choices as the stories unfold

• REFLECT on how the character’s experiences, opinions and revelations might resonate with your own

• LEARN new terms about justice and liberation, and how to recognize and respond to different forms of discrimination—from racism and homophobia to transphobia, and classism

• GROW your social/emotional/somatic intelligence, and self-reflection, critical thinking, and interpersonal skills

• TRANSFORM yourself and the wider world by applying new skills, tools and learning to drive personal and social change.
