In this sweeping and innovative study, Gash and Tichenor place young people at the heart of pivotal conflicts, decisions and transformations in American politics. From the March for Our Lives and Black Lives Matter, to Gay Straight Alliances and the Dreamer and Sunrise movements, they show how the prominence of young people as agents of change are unmistakable in contemporary political life. In a lively narrative that's at once highly accessible and sharplyanalytical, Democracy's Child reveals why the control, leveraging, and agency of young people shapes and defines our political landscape.
