Brief Excerpt
Adults and young people
who support youth involvement have done an excellent job of talking about
these ideas in our schools, at work and whenever we get a chance. Now
is the time to take this movement public and address it like racism and
sexism. Some people will disagree and feel uncomfortable about the movement
to raise awareness about the oppression of young people. But keep this
in mind when doubts overshadow your beliefs: people have had objections
to every major liberation movement throughout history, and ending adultism
is no different. (p. 2)
