do u think the youth doesn't have a voice?

Question

that's homework :P

Answer 1

I think the youth definitely have a voice to be heard. In many cases though, its finding the audience of people who are actually willing to listen and take heed to their voices though.

Answer 2

Of course not. Having a voice requires having a thought.

Today's youth are told _what_ to think instead of _how_ to think. They should learn how to find facts for themselves, and I DON'T mean using a search engine.

Schools act as authority figures teaching them, "These are the facts" and not as spark plugs. Small wonder people today accept the idiocy of cretinism - oops, creationism - while colleges are full of foreigners who take skilled jobs because there aren't any home grown brains.

Answer 3

I think too often that youth is given its voice and its culture by corporations. Music, culture, clothes, movies, news, entertainment are handed to young people as a result of adult marketers who they see as consumers with disposable cash.

I hope that indy bands, indy movies, grassroots culture and authentic poetry and writing and communications start to emerge more. Myspace helps this because I don't think it's controlled by Vivendi, Time Warner, Sony BMG or Virgin, etc.

Young people need to be freed from their slavery.

Answer 4

Yeah, sometimes...

I express myself through my music genres and through the songs that I write. I express through my guitar playing because sometimes it's a nice sounding song and other times it's an aggressive sounding song. All depends on how I am feeling at the time that I write the song...

Haha, and I sometimes express myself through my clothes and the band t-shirts that I wear!!! lol!!!

Answer 5

Heck no. We influence alot. We have a voice....its just how peeps listen and how we use it. Yah we have a voice.......but people don't know how to use it well.

Answer 6

Isn't that what Myspace is for? They get the illusion of it at least.
