I love your Ideal School and your vision for starting an Active Youth movement. I'd love to hear any ideas you might have for how The Five Freedoms Project and the Network can help in realizing your vision!
We've got some Network members on here from Bloomington. A friend of Sam's and mine is Daniel Baron, who is also very committed to youth voice. Drop him a hello at his profile.
You might also be interested in another group started by one of our Network members, Doug Hart. It's called Teens Communicating about Issues that Matter (teencim.ning.com). They've just launched a discussion group called "Youth Voice in Government," with a lot of visiting participants in discussion with the students. Consider joining the conversation - your perspective would be great!
We're partnering with The Forum for Education and Democracy on their Will We Really Campaign, launched on February 6, and hope you'll take a few minutes to visit the campaign web site: www.willwereally.org!
As you can see from the world map on our home page, we have a growing, eclectic community of individuals from across the globe -- from Brooklyn to Pakistan, from North Dakota to China. Thank you for taking the time to add your voice to that fascinating mix.
As you surf around the Network and its companion site, www.fivefreedoms.org, I urge you to share your voice throughout. Take our You Be The Judge First Amendment quiz (a new scenario every two weeks). Leave a comment on a fellow member's personal page and make a new contact. Upload a video to our gallery, or watch and react to one already there. Join (or start) a group or visit the Soapbox to contribute to (or start) a discussion. And invite others to join us.
In short, use your voice to co-create our online community :-)
Post a comment on my page anytime with questions or ideas. Thanks again!
