Everyday Young Hero Awards Essay

“It’s not true that there are no heroes anymore…” (Oliver Stone SB 63) Heroes. Today when we hear heroes we think of superheroes with powers. but have we really thought what heroes really are? Heroes are your regular everyday people that work to the best of their abilities to make a difference in the world. A hero is not someone who thinks about themselves but someone who does things that they believe are right and are admired or idealized for their courage.

It is my profound pleasure to recommend Nakhim Seng for the C.C. “Jitter” Nolen Spirit Award. Nakhim is an intelligent and intrinsically motivated person. More importantly he feels no need to be the center of attention, but if he finds himself there he handles it like a seasoned veteran of the world. I am honored for the opportunity to have witnessed his strength of character as it has propelled him into adulthood. Put simply, Nakhim rises to every challenge he sets for himself and rarely needs anyone to raise the bar for him. He is truly a self-motivated, self-starter who loves to discover the mysteries of the world and who revels in their unraveling. To say it is a pleasure to write this nomination is an understatement.

Many teen activist aren’t very different from each other. They have common qualities that help them be a better activist. These common qualities help them be better at what they do and help them make the world a better place for those who are experiencing the problems of what the activist is fighting against. Some examples of common qualities that activists have, are that they give up their personal time to fight for their cause, or that they have compassion for those around them. They can be very brave as well.

Around the world, many people are afraid to speak their minds. Teen activists inspire people. They are believers who want to change the world. They want to stand up for something that they believe in. What they do for people is very beneficial. They all have motivations for what they do. These teen activists all persevere and do all that they can to get their point out to the world. They all help people along with them selves. I noticed that they will never give up and they will try their hardest. For example, Malala was shot through the head with a bullet. Although that happened she didn't give up. Alex has been helping with the environment since he was in fifth grade. He probably went through some tough choices and difficulties,

Another example of a courageous teen activist is Jeromy Rodriguez . Jeromy Rodriguez is one of the many activists in this world, but unlike others, he was not the one that got bullied, it was his sister Vicky.

What do you do on a Saturday? Sit around watching TV, playing around with your friends, studying for a math test you have on Monday? Well, let me tell you what some of the other teens in this country do. They are either leading protest rallies, starting marches, or talking on interviews to tell the world what they believe in. Not your typical weekend, right? These amazing kids are called teen activists. They fight for the cause they believe in fiercely, whether it’s against animal cruelty, education issues, bullying, or child labor. Some of the teens have a dangerous life full of death threats as they pursue their cause, like Malala and Iqbal. Meanwhile, other like Faye Carey and Alex Lin don't risk their lives, but they still make a big difference in the world. However, nobody’s born with a cause to fight in. Teens become activists through different experiences. They either go through a personal struggle themselves, they see others around them struggle, or they read about the injustice.

The First Teen Activist is Bianca. She is 17 and is from Rancho Cucamonga, California. First off, She started a club at her school called “Hearts for animals”. Also, she brought Pennies for Paws to her school, which is an organization that donates money to animal shelters. How she did this is she She raised over 1,000 dollars for a local animal shelter, and never gave up. She was inspired when she went to a YEA Camp in 2010 at age 14. Her club doesn’t just help animals, but they also do beach cleanups.

Lastly, Alex Libby was bullied. This was a big challenge for him, but he overcame that. For example, PBS says that he was punched, strangled, even sat on, but after switching schools twice he found happiness. Then, he realized he had to do something to help the kids that were still being bullied, and he did. These examples show that teen activists have obstacles they have to

To start off, the first reason why all teen activists have different traits is that they are all optimistic. For example, Alex Lin is optimistic because he wants to make the world a better place. I know this is true because according to the article “Alex Lin Teen Activist” it said that he recycles computers around the U.S. Also another teen activist Faye Carey is optimistic

take to the hospital (or at least that's what my brothers tell me they are), and I want to watch out my window! Oh! And dad just came home from work in London! It's a little early for him to be home, so I'm going to go and ask him how his day was. *Walks to the dining area to ask how his day went* He says he felt really hot during his day and grew tired, and it turns out, he has a slight fever. I got to go and tend to him for a little while, see you

Can one teen really change the world and make it a better place? At least certain teens try and that’s why we call them teen activists. Teen activists fight for a cause that is important to them and other people in similar situations, or facing similar challenges, or simply seeing an opportunity for change. They work in very different ways and use different communication channels, such as; social media, newspapers, and interviews to reach their target audience. Christopher Yao, Alex Lin, and Shawn De Angelo all started their activism as teens.
