Yesterday may have been the National Day to Prevent Teen Pregnancy but the whole month of May is dedicated to increasing awareness of the topic.

From what we've seen, when it comes to young Latinas, that kind of awareness has to be reinforced on a daily basis.

As a result of yesterday's post Latina Teen Pregnancy Rate Deserves Recognition as National Crisis, college student and professional rapper ManAce shared with Latina Lista a music video titled "Hard Times" that he created this past semester.

"The song is about hard times in life in general but the story is specifically about a teenage girl who makes the mistake of young pregnancy and her parents dealing with it," said ManAce.

Latina Lista applauds ManAce for tackling a hard topic with such a socially conscious video and rap song.
