Conversations On the Greeninfo@conversationsonthegreen.com
By Julia Rosenberg and Julia Kastner
When 19-year-old Mark Zuckerberg launched Facebook, he was just one year older than Alexander the Great was when he conquered his first territory and two years older than Malala Yousafzai was when she became the youngest person to ever receive the Nobel Peace Prize.
And the rest, as they say, is history.
Young people often defy expectations. Time and again they transcend the creative boundaries that limited previous generations, innovating in ways that seemed impossible until achieved. In art, business, politics and science, ideas sprung from the cauldron of young imagination often surpass even the most visionary notions about what is possible.
But carrying society’s torch is not without its burdens. While some changemakers draw inspiration from within, many are pushed into working toward the public good because of inherited tribulations; the bells of the future toll for the young, whether it’s climate change, racial injustice or authoritarianism. As an organizer in the youth climate organization, Sunrise Movement, says about coming generations, “We don’t have a choice.”
The young luminaries shaping the world - and their ideas - are the subject of the July 25 episode of Common Ground with Jane Whitney. In the series’ sixth episode of the season, “Superstars of Tomorrow,'' the panelists will discuss their work, their missions, their Eureka moments, how they became involved, their visions for the future and how anyone, regardless of age, can make a difference in their communities and the country.
Moderated by former NBC correspondent and national talk show host Jane Whitney, this interactive conversation, which begins at 3PM EDT on July 25th and runs 90 minutes, will be live streamed, allowing anyone with an internet-connected device to participate and ask questions.
