Description: In this third person narrative memoir, Japanese-American Julie is a high school student grappling with feeling disconnected from her education and the depression that results from school pressures. After much deliberation, she decides to quit schooling and undergo "unschooling" which she defines as "a self-led learning without the constraints of educational institutions." In Issue Two Julie shares her initial struggles with unschooling and the experience and process of adjusting to daily life without school. Julie also discusses her travels to Portland, Oregon where she discovers zine culture for the first time. The zine includes a quote on the inside cover and small illustrations throughout the narrative as well as a spread providing information about unschooling and the author.  — Nayla Delgado
