Transformer – January 11, 2007

This week on Voice of Youth –

Where every week we take a different term of teen slang and define it as only youth can –

The word, “Transformer”, slang for someone who “defects” from one gang to its rival. But that definition is just the beginning of this audio dictionary entry.

Kids tell stories about “transformers”, full of dramatic twists and turns, one young woman reaps the benefits of a dramatic transformation in style, and a gay teen talks about the transformers of his everyday life.

And of course, our three hosts give you an earful of sagas and situations, questions and comments, all about the word “transformer”

Listen!
