Here’s some insight into why young people are massing today in Washington, D.C. as well as 835 other locations around the U.S. The survivors of the Parkland, Florida, Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School: “We’re tired of hearing that we’re too young to ever make a change.” … “We’re not gonna let you win. We’re putting up a fight.” … “Stand up for one another and we’ll never give up the fight.”
And they are not marching alone. There will be battle-tested veterans marching with them.
Since our platform is about expressing ideas and ideals instead of cash flow, clicks, or fundraising, we have the freedom to include a wide range of topics and formats that might not work elsewhere. We don’t need or want paid content, promotional materials, or story lines designed to please donors.
So the idea here is to present videos one or more of the editors feel speaks to them. Sometimes it will be news. Sometimes it will be history. And a lot of the time it will be culture. You can not and should not separate these things: it is diversity and intersectionality that makes our movement strong.
