Teen Activist put their minds to change their community. At the same time there are many obstacles in the way, some minor and others major obstacles. Malala took a bullet to the head to get girls education. Even after that she was still protesting when the Taliban group told her to stop or their going to hurt her.
Another teen activist is Iqbal Masih. He was sold for 12 dollars so his parents can pay a dept. He started working in a factory when he was four years old. He has been working there for six years and finally escapes. He traveled to Quincy, Massachusetts for some help. They gave him money and had him go on TV to tell the world about child slavery. Five months later he was shot dead.
The other teen activist is Alex Lin. He started a group called W.I.N (Westley Innovations Network) to stop electronic waste or E-Waste. They went to Rhode Island state house to make E-Waste illegal. W.I.N did not stop there they made flyers and had radio announcement. Then a few months later they went
back to the Rhode Island state house and completed their goal of making E-Waste illegal.
Although Iqbal Masih didn’t get to complete his goal the 6th Graders he visited accomplish his goal by making a website that got a lot of attention and raised 100,000$ and build a school in Pakistan.
Teen activist are amazing. After Malala’s school was bombed she started to protest and Alex Lin read an article he decided to start recycling E-Waste, it all starts with one thing.
In conclusion, I believe Teen activist are amazing people. They would be rejected, shot a in the head, or even killed they always seem to figure a way to make a change the world and It’s not them who can do it, it could also be one of us.
