Gun control, and the role of teens as political activists is a top feature in the news right now. But what is important here is not simply gun control. What is important here is the fact that these kids are acutely aware of their responsibility to build the kind of world that they want to live in. These kids know that they have the power, as well as the responsibility, to create the kind of world that they want to live in, and they are beginning to mobilize.
In today’s show, Lora sits down with a group of 17 and 18 year olds from the Columbine, Colorado area. Not only do these kids live where the first mass school shooting happened, but they were all in fourth grade when there was a shooting at the middle school next to their elementary school. They already have faced lots of gun situations, and even thought they all have vastly different opinions about guns, gun control, gun rights, and their role in creating the world in which they want to live, they all want to be heard.
Grab some tea, sit back, and enjoy the conversation from today’s youth. These kids truly ARE going to change the world for the better!
Flaunt! Build Your Dreams, Live Your Sparkle! with Lora Cheadle can be heard on Dreamvisions 7 Radio Network.
