Gen Z has inherited a world on fire, but they will not accept it, and they are using every tool they have at their disposal to change it. The activists and content creators at Gen Z for Change, for instance, are creatively using their organizing skills, coding skills, and social media skills to push for climate action and to defend reproductive rights, workers' rights, and more. We talk to Elise Joshi and Sean Wiggs from Gen Z for Change about their recent campaigns to support workers organizing at Amazon, Ralphs, and Starbucks, and about the importance of building intergenerational solidarity.
