Summary

"For Cole Renner what used to matter most was cross-country running and hanging with his best friend, Filipe. In just one day -- the day his father was locked up in Cook County Jail -- Cole's world spun out of control. Now what matters most is fighting for justice. In school and on the streets. For Felipe Ramirez what matters most is family and friendship. And maybe winning the race for class president. He and Cole team up to build a bound-to-win campaign for Felipe -- only to find themselves facing ICE. For Treva Soldat what matters most is getting others to, you know, think. That's why she wears all black: to make people think about political protest. When Cole and Felipe need help more than ever, Terva doesn't just think she can help them: she knows she can." --, Back coverCaught spray-painting the F word on his Chicago high school after his community activist father's arrest, sophomore Cole Renner is sentenced to write two poems a week and uses his words to fight for justice for his father, for himself, for his best friend, and for his fellow students
