What is teen activism?
Content: One example of a teen activist who verbally spread the word was Iqbal Masih, who gave speeches, and spoke to important public figures, along with speaking to students at Broad Meadows Middle School. Another way teen activists spread the word is to use digital resources to get the news out about their cause. To spread the word digitally, teen activists create blogs, websites, and videos about their cause. For instance, Malala Yousafzai, an activist who fights to get girls an education, has been an internet blogger since she was eleven. The last way teen activists spread the word is visually. Teen activists can create art, signs, or other visual demonstrations to get the word out about their cause. One example of this is Phoebe Collver-Freeland, who is well known in the animal rights community for her art activism, including animal rights-inspired duct tape wallets. Teen activists spread the word in all of these different ways, and have causes they deeply care about. This section solely focused on teen activism, but people can be any age to help fight for what those people believe in. People can raise money, protest, create art, create blogs, and basically do anything they can to help.
