Review of Watching My Cousin Sink Into Gang Life

"Watching my cousin sink into gang life" by Julie Piludo offers an outsider's view on gang life. The audio proves that bad things can happen to good people and illustrates how joining a gang can affect those not even directly involved. In the end, Julie does lose her cousin to jail, but she never forgets his advice.
Julie Piludo's voice really makes the piece touching and real. The music at the end also improves the audio.
