Youth Voices: Our Wildest Dreams

Published May 26, 2020


In a time when many of our biggest visions for 2020 feel turned upside down, we're overdue for some inspiration. Enter youth voices Athina Amanor, Daniel Cook, Sary Barrios, & Theo Cooksey.

In this episode, we hear four winning essays from the YES! Magazine student essay contest this spring, read by their authors. The prompt was about students' Wildest Dreams for 2020, inspired by our New Years Practice with Alicia Garza here on the podcast. 1,342 students submitted essays, and these were some of the most powerful.
