One wore a skirt. One had a lighter. One moment changed both of their lives forever. If it weren't for the 57 bus, they would never have met. Sasha, a white teen, lived in Oakland, California's middle-class foothills and attended a small private school. Richard, a black teen, lived in the crime-plagued flatlands and attended a large public school. Each day, their paths overlapped for a mere eight minutes. But one afternoon, a single reckless act left Sasha severely burned, and Richard charged with two hate crimes and facing life in prison.
