The Freedom Writers Diary: How a Teacher and 150 Teens Used Writing to Change Themselves and the World Around Them
Erin Gruwell
    
As an idealistic 23-year old English teacher in Long Beach, California, Erin Gruwell confronted a room of 'unteachable, at-risk' students. She had intercepted a note with an ugly racial caricature, and angrily declared that this was precisely the sort of thing which led to the Holocaust. After this incident she and her students undertook a life-changing, eye-opening, spirit-raising odyssey against intolerance and misunderstanding by writing their own diaries.
