Throughout history, the participation and leadership of young people has defined the success of movements for justice - the same is true today. Scot and Sue are joined by Alex Ames, a movement leader in the state of Georgia, to give insights into the experiences of young people and democracy. Why are young people cynical toward the democratic process in the US? How does social media and the rising cost of living create the conditions for isolation? What are the issues that matter most to them and how do we bring more young people into the pro-democracy movement?
