When Ilana Beloborodov, 17, was creating her sign for last month's youth-led climate strike in Boston, she knew she wanted to come up with a slogan other teens would understand.
So she turned to the language of TikTok. nbcnews.to/2BalbIN (1/7)
After spending the morning mulling what reference she'd use, she landed on the phrase "e-girl" — a term for the colorful yet goth-inspired teens on the short-form video app.
