The Next Advocates

Think of any movement not female-centric. Now, take a pause long enough to think of the first five people who come to mind. Chances are the majority of that list is made up of men.

There are simply not enough stories that champion young women and the strides they are making. The Next Advocates works to remedy this.

Learn how Noor Tagouri, a 25-year-old journalist, harnesses social media to promote fair representation of cultures and minorities in media. Yara Shahidi, best known for her role on Black-ish, is taking another role as an advocate for youth voters. Meet Grace Que, a 20-year-old who, while at university, helped to build a platform for women in the computer science industry.

Causes you will find in this book include:

• Women in STEM
• Immigration Reform
• Climate Change
• Minority Representation in the Media
• Youth Voters in the US
• #MeToo in China
• And more...

Whether you are a young woman yourself or an adult wishing to empower a young person, let the stories in The Next Advocates show that age and gender don't matter. Passion and a few simple tools are all that's necessary.
