Havana Amanlou, Assistant Opinions Editor
Hey there! I’m Havana Amanlou, a senior at CCHS, and the Assistant Opinions Editor for the USJ. Now in my second year doing Journalism, I’ve come to deeply value the power of using one’s voice to shed light on important issues. My passion lies in covering topics related to law and politics, social justice, and the controversial conversations society often tries to avoid. Through journalism, I aim to inform, challenge perspectives, and make a meaningful difference. Outside of the USJ, I stay actively engaged with current events and am always seeking to better understand the rapidly changing world around me. For the past three years, I’ve volunteered at the Children’s Hospital as another way to give back to my community. In my free time, I enjoy skiing, painting, reading, and spending time with family and friends. If you’re interested in politics, be sure to check out my column, Political Peculiarities: Strange Happenings in Governance, where I explore the more unusual and controversial side of government affairs. And be sure to stay tuned for my upcoming column covering social injustices and the flaw of our legal system.
