Hundreds of Sacramento-area students rallied to support four students suspended for wearing anti-gay shirts. One participant said: "It's only going to get worse against Christians. We're going to get persecuted more and more. But those who stand to the end: God is going to save them." Um, right...

We know, we know, you kids have been eagerly awaiting part two of our The Youth Issue interview with Canadian artist/legend, AA Bronson (pictured by Chris Clary). Well, the moment's finally here.
When we left Bronson with that scoundrel Andrew Belonsky, Bronson had just said he's constantly sabotaging himself - an irksome habit perhaps born from guilt over the deaths of his General Idea partners, Jorge Zontal and Felix Partz. The conversation picks up where it left off - charting into Bronson's childhood in the wilds of Canada, his father's death and the idea of leaving a legacy. Oh, and there's even some mention of another The Youth Issue subject, Terence Koh.
If you've been lagging, read part one here. Then come back to have your socks knocked off, kiddo.

For today's installment of the The Youth Issue, we bring you an interview with artistic wunderkind, Terence Koh.
Since his first solo show in 2003 (under his unofficially retired moniker, asianpunkboy) Koh's gone on to become one of the art world's rising stars. Bathed in as much melancholy as it is quiet hope, Koh's sculpture, photography, publishing and performances blur the lines between punk, porn and posterity. Of course, for those who know Koh, this should come as no surprise: he's a man whose own life remains indistinguishable from his art. In this week's New York Magazine, future The Youth Issue subject, General Idea founder, AA Bronson, says: I don’t think of Terence making individual pieces... It’s one complex piece. An almost fictional autobiography, one extended work."
The reporter goes on to shine a little light on some of Koh's alleged lies:
The details of that autobiography constantly shift to his advantage. Koh grew up in Canada, but press materials state that he was born in Beijing, and his birth date has advanced over the years from 1977 to 1979 to 1980. Bronson chuckles: “Terence lies about everything. I think he was born in Singapore. And my guess is he’s about 36.”We don't care how old he is, he's still young at heart. And that's all that matters, right?
Gearing up for his first solo show at an American museum (a little place called The Whitney) and a concert at Deitch, the supposedly 29-year old artist took some time to answer some of our pressing questions. Rather than starting with his childhood, editor Andrew Belonsky took more of a - shall we say - "morbid" approach.
See what we mean, after the jump.
