What is the political power for teens who are under the voting age? How can education and community relationships impact the political playing field for teens? Why is it important to expand our understanding of what is political power and how to effectively enact change without exercising your vote?


Join your host, Samantha Castro, as she discusses teenage political engagement, identifying strategies of power through collaboration, and what to do before, during, and after your right to vote with Assatta Mann of New Jersey Institute for Social Justice in the first part of Smells Like Teen (Political) Spirit.
