A WORD FROM THE EDITORS

The future starts with us. We’re often told that we’re too young to understand the world around us, but we’ve grown up in a world of conflict and now it’s our turn to make decisions. When the decisions made today by people in power will affect us years down the road, it’s our right to have a part in those decisions. Young people represent the future of not only our country, but also the world, as we are a hub of change and progress. In the past few years, our generation has been impacted by issues such as the COVID-19 epidemic, the overturning of the landmark Supreme Court case Roe v. Wade, protests for the Black Lives Matter movement, the insurrection of the White House, and much more.
