In Sterling Heights, three teen girls from Chippewa Valley High School - Mary Vucaj, Angel Santana and Ariana Belyue - planned and lead a 4,000-person protest along the Golden Corridor on June 6.
In Detroit, 16-year-old Stefan Perez has become a leader among the daily Black Lives Matter protesters. Meanwhile, 17-year-old Rockwood teen Taylor Martin held her own Detroit protest along the Dequindre Cut.
So, what is inspiring local Gen Z teens to stand up against police brutality and speak out in support of equality more so than teens of past generations?

Simplistic, childish, emotional drivel.
White teens using the N word against black cops while chanting “Black Lives Matter” is 2020 in a nutshell

Baloney she organized it. It was organized by these idiots and they USED a teen as a prop.
And the dudes with the skateboards, they are the frontline sh@t stirrers.
Exactly.
Makes me wonder how many unwitting props were used on Jan 6, 2021.
BYP100 is one of the groups that sent people to be trained overseas in “Palestine.”
I watched this yesterday.
