Poster child of 'Umbrella Movement' re-enters the fray
Click HERE
Good example of a youth activist. Became a protest leader when he was just 17!!!:
Scrawny, with gaunt features and a studious frown, the then 17-year-old spearheaded the mass "Umbrella Movement" protests, which were a reaction to restrictions from Beijing on how Hong Kong's next leader would be chosen.
For other teenage activists eg, think Nobel Peace Prize winner, Malala, and the latest Swedish teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg (Click HERE)
Note that education into awareness plays a big role in firing the spark of acitvism in students...
Relate also to last yr's 'A' lvl AQ on youth and politics.
Qns:
1. To what extent do young people in your society take an interest in politics? (Cam. 2006)
2. Discuss the claim that education guarantees progress. (ACJC Prelim 2015)
3. Can we eliminate violence with education? (CJC Prelim 2018)
