“The future of democracy looks young, brown, black, and determined." - Joselyn, Santa Fe South graduate, OKC
Joselyn's word are beautiful and should be galvanizing to all of us as we stare down the racist evils blazing all over the country. All power to the people.

“We need to be authentic and let students be authentic, and not be afraid when they’re angry. We’re dealing with things that are life-threatening and that brings a lot of emotion with it” @amycurranokc

like myself to get registered to vote and make their voice be heard. It is time for young people's voices to be heard because our voice counts too. Change will not happen unless we young people take a stand.” /2

🎤 drop, @amycurranokc: "Students shouldn't have to do unpaid internships. I don't believe people should offer them. There should be compensation. These are people who deserve to be treated with dignity for the value they bring to organizations & their work." #civicscon
