History
Candid was created in May 2006 by Lisa Gu, Amber Makhani, Helen Wang, and Kae Wang. Working through summer break, the four high school students assembled the first issue of the magazine. With the help of Mandy Grewal and other students, editors sold advertisements and conducted fundraisers to cover the $5,000 cost of printing 5,000 copies.
For its second and subsequent issues, Candid expanded staff to include reporters, school representatives, graphics designers, and advertising representatives.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“I saw the Arab map.
It resembled a mare shuffling on,
dragging its history like saddlebags,
nearing its tomb and the pitch of hell.”

“The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.”
