The youth is stereotyped as apathetic. As portrayed in the media, in politics, and in households, young people seem to only sit around and get distracted by video games and material items all day. It is ironic that we are supposedly the most apathetic youth when we are in actuality an extremely accomplished generation. Our youth participation in politics is on a steady incline, the entrepreneurs are younger than ever before, and those who get into universities face acceptance rates as low as 9%. The youth is underestimated and it is time that their successes and ambitions are showcased. Zachary Morris, April Eaton, Charlie Cohen, and Christopher Castle are all under twenty-years-old and are already in the active pursuit of their dreams. They work hard, think deeply, and most importantly, dream big. Regardless of whether the dream is to be a businessman or a theatrical performer, a musical artist or a model, the pursuit of that takes drive and hard work. Zach said candidly in his interview, “My dreams are big, but it starts with the smallest thing. An inspiration.” True greatness comes from the endless, tiring, and tenacious pursuit of a dream.
