Just saw something on my feed that reminded me to remind you that if you’re a NYC (or vicinity) high school or middle school teacher and you’d like me to come talk to your students, all you have to do is say so and I’ll be there.
I've spoken with NYC middle school students about the history of youth activism, how they can make change themselves, whether we should lower the voting age—all sorts of stuff. And the conversations are always really lively.
And because it's so much fun, and because it's a subway ride away, and because I know that y'all don't have budgets for this stuff, I'm happy to do it for free. So shoot me a message if you want to set it up.
(Offer applies even if I have to take a bus. Hell, I'll go to Staten Island. Why not.)
If you haven't read it and are interested, BTW, here's the piece I wrote arguing (sincerely!) that the voting age should be lowered to twelve. rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
