Teen Activism

What is a teen activist? A teen activist is a teenager who wants to help people or animals for a cause. What I think about all teen activists is that they all fight for what they believe in. They go to extensive lengths to help people to help us. They don't do this because they have to they do it because they want to do it. They don't care that the odds were against them or they have very little chance of succeeding. They do what they want and the do it right.They are like the voice of the people fighting up against poverty and all the other struggles in the world. Most activists go through a lot like Malala but I won't get to deep into that yet. They all have the courage to do what they do.

One way teen activists show their ideas is social media. They express their opinions to people with facebook, whatsapp, or twitter. For example, Faye Carey is a teen girl who

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,

Teen activists are kids who not only want to make a difference, but are brave enough to try. Teen activists are kids that do whatever they can to help the world. They are compassionate for those less fortunate, they befriend those who are in need of help, and they try to have more people to come and help. Teen activists all have one more thing in common to become a teen activist, either the activist has had personal struggles, seen someone or something have personal struggles, or they read an article.

Teen activists get help in many different ways. They get help because they know they can't do it by themselves and when there are more people more work can get done. For example you can get help from parents or other adults just like Malala Yousafzai or Alex Lin. Another way to get help is by the teen activists friends, or other teen activists willing to help two people who did that were Alex Lin and Craig Kielburger.

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.

So have you heard of a teen activist if not your about to find out what they are!!! A teen activist is someone that helps with the environment and negative things that happen. An example of a teen activist is faye carey after leaving work one day she saw a puppy sand and in a cage so she started making advertisement´s. If you are interested in making a difference for a cause you care about you can do so by educating yourself about the issue finding ways to get involved in a person, and online. In order to become a teen activist you should be, helpful, nice, donate your time be ready, and be prepared.

There many Activists you might even be one. In a different way then Malala. But today I will tell you about two particular teen activists Malala Yousafzai, and Erica Fernandes. These two young girls risked their lives for what they believe is right, one more then the other. I am going to be telling you about what they did, and what they changed to make the world a better place. But first you need to know who they are Malala lived in Pakistan were she was not supposed to go to school. Now she attends school in England. But she wants to move back to Pakistan. Erica Fernandes is a activist who works to raise awareness as to how youth can work with the government to help improve the environment.

Imagine this: you and your siblings are great musicians and you see children your age in Haiti, homeless. Or this: you have AIDS and everyone in your school is making fun of you. Or even worse: your neighbor’s dog is about to be decapitated by a drunk man. What would you do? I would probably tell someone, but the people who went through these events stood up for what they believed in. They used their talents and instincts to do such. The youth who do these kinds of things are called teen activists. They know what to do to tackle a terrible situation that they want to change. Most teen activists are determined to change the world, whether it be through music, books and tours, or putting their life on the line.

Have you realized how your parents have many responsibilities. Teen Activism has taken control all over the world. You should not just take your smartness as a kid for granate. You realize that you could make a change just like everyone else in the world, kids have made more changes as parents and some of them are called teen activism. Teen activism has made changes so much and that just states and tells you that you can also make a change just like these teen activists do. For example Alex Libby, he made a change in bullying and also a bully message from a girl that was 16 only and these things are happening world wide so they needed to stand up and make a change.

Teen activists work in different ways. Some teen activists, like Malala Yousufzai used social media to receive attention for her cause. Different teen activists, like Craig Kielburger made a organization called “ Free The Children” to stop child labor and poverty around the world. Other teen activists, like Alex Lin asked the government to pass his law for e-waste to refurbish computers and electronics, he gives the electronics to kids around the world who can't afford them, instead of throwing them away, which could lead to complications in human life. Teen activists all work hard to motivate others and are eloquent at speaking people to make their cause known. Iqbal Masih and Malala Yousufzai are courageous enough to show their faces to

The first person I am going to tell you about is Malala Yousafzai. Malala Yousafzai is an Indian person who got shot point blank in the head by an organization called taliban and survived. Malala has inspired a great deal of people. Malala’s cause was to have girls go to school. Malala also has something called the Malala Fund which is a thing so that people can spend all their money on this person who wants to help people on tv.

Faye Carey started out as an everyday girl, but that changed when she decided to volunteer for a week at her local animal shelter. On her first day on the job, Animal Control picked up a puppy, and on her last day of the job, she saw that it was still there. Carey felt empathy for the puppy and decided to try to get the puppy adopted. She advertised the puppy on Trade Me, an Internet-auction website, and found the puppy a great home with loving owners. Then, she learned about an abandoned litter of kitties, and wanted them to have the same happy ending as the puppy. Faye Carey wanted a free way to advertise the litter of kitties, and many more abandoned animals, so she got the brilliant idea to set up a Facebook page to try to get animals adopted. It worked really well, and now Faye Carey has managed to find 60 abandoned animals new homes through her Facebook page, called Animal Re-home Waikato. It is a lot of work getting the animals adopted--the work includes grooming and cleaning the animals, setting up times for possible owners to see the puppies, and answering questioning emails. Her Facebook page has made it easier to do this, since she is able to post photos of animals she wants to get adopted, and answer to questions through comments. Animal Re-home Waikato has over 300 likes, because of Faye’s hard work and effort to getting as many animals as possible adopted.
