What to expect
Activism. Art. Community care. Education. These are the hallmarks of the work done by the youth highlighted in this collection featuring LGBTQ+ leaders working to make our world more inclusive.
Civil Rights activist Marian Wright Edelman once said, "You can't be what you can't see."
In this collection of short biographies, listeners will see the example of thirty young trailblazers representative of a generation that values intersectional, collaborative social justice and who are working to build a world that values everyone.
Meet leaders who founded organizations for their liberation as teenagers, leaders who brought Black transgender representation to people's television screens, and leaders who successfully advocated for access to restrooms for transgender students. Meet the first transgender athlete to compete in Division I sports, and artists advocating for inclusiveness through poetry, film, fashion, and other mediums.
Whether their work involves protesting, working with policymakers for change, or just existing in the world as their creative selves, each of these young leaders shares what brings them joy and keeps them motivated to do the work they do—even when it's hard—and their hope for better things to come.
