Donors' Wall

Justin Graham The civil rights of youth across the country are worth another donation.

Withheld Withheld TNO from the forums
Elias Roa This is being donated on the day of my 18th birthday. This is being given when the issues this organization deals with no longer apply to me. Why am I donating then? Because first they came for the Jews, I remained silent, for I was not a Jew...
anthony bernier While I agree with Robert Epstein "No one should be judged by age. Young people should be allowed to enter the adult world just as soon as they can demonstrate appropriate competence..." I also think it foolish to reduce all youth culture to being infantilizing and trapping..." anyone. That reduces all youth to brainless sheep. Many young people develop and express power through cultural channels. It would be like saying that all slave culture was imposed on that population from their masters. ~anthony bernier
