Listening and Amplifying Young Voices in Our Digital Age.

Growing up in this digital age can allow young people like myself to more easily and readily listen and accept new information that comes to us. However, technology is a double-edged sword that can perpetuate both kindness and hate speech. With care and good intentions, we can use technology to amplify information, stories, and voices, reverberating cries and vibrations of change to ultimately better our world.
