Comments from the Judges
“Riveting, heartbreaking, infuriating and tender. Such a difficult story told so sensitively.”
“The reporter really captures these kids – their voices, their behaviors, and how they process the violence they experienced. I am amazed he was able to get so many people to share their experiences with him. Impressive data analysis, too.”
