Children should be seen AND heard. Young people have always contributed to transformation in this country and in this world. Never doubt that the young can make a difference.
I have been working on my filter project for 5 years as of this year. On top of doing half a dozen projects/events for local kids every single year. There are no big foundations backing me. I can tweet about the issues all day and for the most part nobody listens. I don't have huge platforms like other activist. I have asked for help from foundations, nonprofits, celebrities, politicians and companies. I have had adults telling me to stay in a child's place more times than I can count. I do this work because everyone deserves access to clean water. I do this work because I see the need in my community for necessities every single day, I want to give the kids here the world. I do this work because its exhausting seeing those in charge doing the bare minimum.
Are you just starting out in the youth empowerment space or need help reaching more youth, funders and media outlets to get the word out about the good you do in the world? This is the last week for our #NationalMentoringMonth promo! https://t.co/PGaCkB1kQ3
@TODAYshow Our girls and young women have been over exposed to adults behaving badly. They have learned this behavior by consuming popular media (ie reality TV). We have to be living examples for them. Each ๐๐พand ๐๐พevery ๐๐พone of us not just their parents.
I know many people are complaining about #SephoraKids and having their shopping experience disrupted by tweens behaving badly. But please, please refrain from photographing and recording videos of children who are not yours. We have to be role models for them. It starts with us.
