Youth to Power: Your Voice and How to Use It Quotes

“So if our goal is to shift the culture, we have to work on making influences in mediums that control the culture. So what does control our culture? Art. Music, photography, paintings, drawings, films, videos... if you think about what shapes and moves our society forward, it's art. If you think about what you spend most of your time listening to and looking at, whether an Instagram photo, a show, a song--all of that is art. So not only is it important to use art in our resistance and activism; it is vital. Because how else are we going to reach people? Art is a universal language, a way of making people see and understand experiences in a profound new light. Art influences society by changing opinions, instilling values, and translating experiences across space and time. Art is a way of taking up space and reclaiming narratives that are never told otherwise.”
