Hello I am new here and love the fact there is a forum dedicated to design.
My goal for this is urban,youth,and all races. But I feel it is to urban. Please critique and let me know what I can do to make it more general. Should I remove the people.

the text doesn't loo to urban to be honest. and maybe if it's for all race then you could put some asian people on the image.

I agree if its supposed to be for all races then there does need to be more races in the image. Plus I dont think the images fit together.

Unfortunately they don't - I also think that they look too old if youth is a factor

They definately don't look too old to me.
The images are from different sources, and it shows. Need more congruency.
The font is kind of irritating to my eye, and the bottom text is unreadable.
As far as multiracial goes, all I see is 3 african americans and one white dude whos face I can't even see.
Keep werrrrkin.

If you really want this to appeal to all races - you have a lot of work ahead of you. Did you mean all of the races within american speaking countries? Or what?
You're going to need to provide more than one language if your target is truly that global - but I have a feeling this is not the case, so...nevermind then! I think you just need to define your target more precisely.

Is the absence of space following each comma intentional? (Chat, Events, etc.) I would try to avoid breaking any major rules of punctuation or grammar if aiming for immediate legibility. Either way, this line of text would look better if given the space to sit more comfortably. Perhaps try dropping all of the text down by a few millimetres. Also, I would be inclined not to stretch the figures unless it serves a purpose, it is slightly distracting.
