The Youth Liberation Movement

The Youth Liberation Movement advocates for young people's rights to autonomy, decision-making, and freedom from adult control. It challenges traditional hierarchies that limit youth participation in societal, educational, and familial settings. The movement emphasizes respecting adolescents as capable individuals whose voices matter, promoting ideas like lowered voting ages, independent living, and broader involvement in policies affecting them. Its goal is to empower youth to shape their lives and society, fostering a culture that recognizes their maturity and contributions while balancing responsible guidance.
