Black Westchester often helps young writers raise their voices as a way to support creative expression and identity formation. Youth Voices are important because decisions and policies made today will directly affect them as they inherit the future. The youth today are empowered, informed, and have the capacity to have their voices heard. Black Westchester welcomes and encourages the voice of the youth in this column, where we offer an outlet to our future leaders to express and share their point of view.
