Youth Rising | Preview

Season 7 Episode 22 | 30s

In the exuberance of youth lies the heartbeat of change. Beatriz grapples with being “too girly” in the rigorous world of STEM; Omar’s underdog mayoral race captures the essence of youthful idealism; and Sara shares the behind-the-scenes story of young, climate education activists. Three storytellers, three interpretations of YOUTH RISING, hosted by Wes Hazard.

Stories from the Stage is a collaboration of WORLD Channel and GBH. In partnership with Tell&Act.
