On Minor Issues, young people discuss world issues and give ideas for how to help out through interviews with peers, leaders, and more awesome people. Each episode is centered around a big, central problem (anything from race relations to coronavirus to mental health stigmas or global warming). Visit minorissues.carrd.co to learn more!
We’re back for season three and kicking the season off with a very important topic: youth voting.
In the 2020 election, only 50% of youth voters aged 18-19 showed up to the polls, the lowest voter turnout of all age groups.
Matthew from the That’s SO Matthew podcast joins us to talk about how teenagers can become informed voters. With so many other things happening in the world, voting can often fall to the back of our minds. But the reality is that we can’t have a democracy if we aren’t all casting our ballots.
And thanks for tuning in to the very first episode of season three!

What is Critical Race Theory?
Just in the first few months of this year, the term critical race theory was mentioned nearly two thousand times on Fox News. And 2021 has seen a flurry of red states pass legislation banning critical race theory from being taught in school systems. While these laws have been met with widespread approval from conservatives, liberals all over the country are in outcry. And in spite of all this debate, millions of Americans still don’t understand what critical race theory even is. This week, a fellow teen podcaster, Halima, joins me to break all of this down and explain in depth what critical race theory is and what it means for America. Thanks for tuning in!
