When tragedy strikes and a terrorist schoolteacher opens fire at a high school in New Mexico, matters of racial equality  seem more questionable than ever, leaving colored students like Arya Divero to deal with the aftermath of grief and lost identity.     
                                                                                               
When Arya decides to take a stand against injustice and commemorate the black lives lost in the shooting, she's paired with two other students to construct a mural in memory of the victims. And as luck would have it, these two students  just so happen to be her ex-girlfriend, Nina, and her best-friend's ex-boyfriend, Stephen.         
                                                         
And so, Arya is bound on a journey of self-discovery as she questions the very fundamentals of her existence: right vs. wrong, love vs. hate, black vs. white. But as she'll soon discover, nothing is set in stone and life is not just a war between black and white.       
                                                          
There's a whole spectrum of colors in between.

Neon Girl by buzzmama

A musically talented teen with her sights set on the spotlight must find a way to get her life back when she falls in with the mob. ***** In a city where con artists make the rules and aspiring females wear sequins and dance with a pole, Melody Holiday refuses to ride on the coattails of her semi-famous grandfather. She wants the freedom to choose her own path to showbiz greatness. When a chance meeting with a handsome stranger provides Mel with an opportunity, she thinks she's landed the big one. But her grandpa isn't thrilled with the direction Mel's career is going, and it's not until she stumbles across something she probably shouldn't have that this becomes clear. Perhaps meeting the stranger with the Rocky Balboa eyes wasn't by chance. Maybe Mel is rubbing elbows with the kind of people who could take away her freedom for good.
