When humanity was needed, it was our youth that answered the call. A word from Photographer Misan Harriman. From Soweto to Tiananmen Square to Arab Spring uprisings it's always been the Youth at the forefront of change. It no wonder they are taking the lead once again. We Stand with Them.

An eloquent speaker speaking truth. When I was young, it was my generation that marched for civil rights, women's rights, disabled rights, against war. What happened to my generation? We should be standing alongside out young, speaking out, demanding change. I am, and will, to my dying breath.

After Arab Spring some activist argued that unless we change and see how we contribute to why it happened oppression keeps re-happening.

So true. Students at University of Michigan and Cal Berkeley and many others -led the Free Speech movement in the 60s; -led the anti-war protests of the late 60s and early 70s and -contributed to voter registration drives and sit-ins to start the breakdown of Jim Crow segregation.

Yes, I have learned from the Vietnam protests, and that point on, the youth are the conscience of a nation.
