Publisher's Synopsis
Can you hear us? In the beginning, we were whispering as we pondered our thoughts, putting them on paper for the world to understand. Can you hear us? Over time, we started to speak in our indoor voices, beckoning for someone-anyone to listen to what we have to say. Can you hear us? Now we are screaming at the top of our lungs, assuring that the words bursting from our lips are amplified enough to allow hundreds, thousands, even millions of people to hear. Or even just one. This is the second volume to "Generation Now", a collection of narratives written by students at Union College. Our vision is to tell the stories of the change we wish to see in our worlds. Each of us have written a unique call to action to inspire our readers to make change in our respective communities. Open the book. Hear our voices. And use your own. Authors include Suleydi Betancourt, Athen Bo, Caitlin Buchanan, Elizabeth Cilia, Marika Contompasis, Kelsey Cox, Sophia Gebara, Grace Huebschmann, Nancy Lopez Ramirez, Catherine Nakato, Emmanuela Oppong, Lily Reale, and Hana Young.
