What happens when young people are given the space and support to express themselves through art? In this episode, Olivia Neal talks with Genna Marshall, senior communications strategist at the ACLU of North Carolina, about The Future Echoes zine project. This youth-led anthology invites young creators to share their thoughts, experiences, and visions for the future through visual art and writing.

They explore the roots of zine-making, the value of analog creativity in a digital world, and why artistic expression is a powerful tool for social change. From personal reflections on voting to creative responses to crisis and community, The Future Echoes captures what young people are feeling right now.

If you believe art can spark conversation and build movements, this episode is for you.
