Introduction to Episode 27: Gen Z and Politics
00:00:00
Speaker
Welcome to hashtag Gen Z. I'm your host, Megan Grace. Hey there and welcome back. This is episode 27 of hashtag Gen Z.
00:00:23
Speaker
This episode continues the conversation about Generation Z and politics. In the last episode, Corey and I discussed some findings from our most recent study on Generation Z voting and politics. We chatted about some of the social and political issues that are important to Generation Z, as well as what our research tells us about their plans to vote and their political ideologies.
Aligning Research with Gen Z Experiences
00:00:41
Speaker
And while our research is incredibly informative, I love to juxtapose those findings with the lived experiences of members of Generation Z. It helps me understand how qualitative and quantitative trends in our findings resonate with the lives and outlooks of Generation Z. Do they actually lean left in their views? Do the issues we found line up with those that are actually on the minds of Generation Z?
Meet the Leaders of Coalition Z
00:01:02
Speaker
So I'm excited to share the conversation I had with the co-executive directors of Coalition Z.
00:01:07
Speaker
Durga, Josephine, and Charlotte are all still currently in high school and not yet eligible to vote, but they've committed their energy towards helping educate and engage their Generation Z peers in civic activities and political activism.
00:01:22
Speaker
I'm so excited to welcome three wonderful new friends to today's conversation, the executive directors of Coalition Z. And I'm actually going to turn it over to my new friend, Charlotte Durga, and Josephine to introduce themselves before we get started talking about what they do with Coalition Z. So welcome, everyone. Hi, I'm so excited to be here. My name is Charlotte Rich Jack. And like Megan said, I'm one of the co-executive directors of Coalition Z. I am a junior in high school in New York.
00:01:49
Speaker
The reason why I got involved with coalition Z originally is because I love all things kind of history politics civic engagement centered and I found coalition Z and then ultimately met Durga and Josephine and we became executive directors together so
00:02:06
Speaker
Awesome, thanks Charlotte, and thank you Megan for having us. It's such a pleasure to be here. So yeah, again, I'm another executive director along with Disney and Charlotte and through Poetry and Z, I feel like I made just a lot of connections that put so much of our time into this and I feel like that's
00:02:24
Speaker
probably one of my biggest involvements and especially right now with all the time on our hands. There's a lot that we can do surrounding activism and something that interests me a lot is diversity issues and fixing those in our education systems particularly which is
00:02:39
Speaker
one of the main things I've been working on, especially in terms of my own school. I'm Josephine O'Brien. I'm also a junior in New York City, and I'm also a co-executive director of Coalition Z.
Coalition Z's Mission and Key Issues
00:02:50
Speaker
And Coalition Z has really shaped all of my interests in high school and has really gotten me involved in progressive local politics. And right now,
00:02:59
Speaker
I'm really working on a lot of local down-ballot progressive campaigns, which is really where I'm spending a lot of my time right now. But Coalition Z has really stressed me the importance of young people in politics and how politics can strictly be defined as elections and policy, but really is communities and people coming together to shape what is around them. And Coalition Z really taught me that.
00:03:28
Speaker
I think that the name is amazing, but could you just give our listeners a quick overview? What is Coalition Z and what is the organization's main priorities and some of the main things that you all focus your energy on? Yeah. So Coalition Z, as our name suggests, is focused on Generation Z. And basically our goal is to organize youth and organize our generation to make the changes that we want to see.
00:03:54
Speaker
And one of the biggest issues that we're facing is voting within youth populations and how generally kids are less, not kids anymore, but kids and teenagers are less involved in politics and government, often because
00:04:15
Speaker
of the like basically education and lack of it. But then again, people are very interested in becoming a part of the political scene and yet do not have the resources to do so. So a lot of our goal is to give people resources to make change through like toolkits and different and how to host your own voter registration drives and different events that we run through the year to get people involved with policy and with elected officials.
00:04:43
Speaker
to feel involved and to have a real voice in everything that's going on. Yeah. And just adding on to Durga, I think our unique way of looking at youth politics is that we consider ourselves a policy organization and a policy-oriented organization. So what we do is we work with a lot of community-based organizations.
00:05:04
Speaker
to partner and work on issues together. Because something I think is really important, something we've talked a lot about together is we don't want to be doing the work that other people are already doing and have been doing for years. So what we try to do is we focus on getting our generation involved in policy and work with community-based organizations that
00:05:26
Speaker
have been doing this work for a while from the policy end. So what that means is as Durga was saying, we do a ton of voter outreach. We also work on pairing young people to political candidates. And we work on influencing candidates policies. And then we work on trying to get our progressive platforms implemented on different levels. So in general, just to sum that up a little bit, it's about like connecting young people
00:05:50
Speaker
and their elected officials to make these connections and make these policy and implement these policies and then working to implement these policies through policy work and like the toolkits that Durga was talking about.
00:06:03
Speaker
That's wonderful. I think the work you're doing is so incredibly important and my research partner and I recently just wrapped up a study on Generation Z voting and politics and perspectives and the policies really do matter and I do credit a lot of the work that you're doing because when we're looking at
00:06:22
Speaker
Generation Z that are maybe disinclined or don't want to vote or aren't registered to vote or don't plan to vote, a lot of it comes from an education perspective of not feeling informed enough on policies and elected officials. I think the work that you're doing will continue to be incredibly important, especially this year as we're moving into an election year. We are in an election year that's wild to think about, but in just a few months, we're going to really be starting to think about how this election is going to take shape.
00:06:49
Speaker
I think a lot of people are going to be looking at Generation Z in terms of being our youngest voter block. And some of you aren't even old enough to vote yet, and you're doing so much work to support elections and elected officials and policy.
Gen Z's Key Political Issues
00:07:03
Speaker
From your work and your experiences, what do you think are some of the most important policy issues and social issues to Generation Z when it comes to politics and government?
00:07:13
Speaker
I think that a lot of the issues that we're focused on right now are issues that directly affect our generation and will directly affect our generation in years come that may or may not have been not fully addressed by the government in previous years. As you probably know, climate change is a really huge issue among our generation because we know that we're going to be the generation that's going to feel
00:07:42
Speaker
that's going to be living the longest for lack of a better word. So we're going to be the generation is going to be feeling these effects into the future. Gun control has always been a big issue for our generation because
00:07:54
Speaker
like school shootings affect our generation. And then also I think something big in our generation is always considering the intersectionality of these issues and how they affect some groups more than others like climate change disproportionately affects like low income and like indigenous groups. And I think those are really issues that resonate with young people because they know that these are issues that affect our generation and will be affecting us into the future.
00:08:23
Speaker
All of what Josephine said I think is definitely true. I just wanted to add on, I think, the perspective that a lot of young people take when it comes to politics. You know, this generation has grown up in an era where schools are crazy underfunded, where we're dealing with this climate crisis, where income inequality is so visible on so many different levels. People don't have access to insurance. There are so many
00:08:48
Speaker
systems that are supposed to support young people in their upbringing that aren't, not only are they not strong enough, but for a lot of people they aren't even reaching them. So I think, you know, a lot of that has to do with partisanship and how American government just works differently now than it did a few decades ago. But the effect of that has been swinging a lot of young people further to the left and demanding that we kind of
00:09:15
Speaker
Change the system that has failed them a lot of them has failed a lot of them So that's why there's this emphasis on putting new people into office on changing laws on You know coming out to the streets and protesting But I think there's this new level in of engagement because so many young people have felt these issues on a very personal level Josephine talked about some of those personal levels, but I
00:09:39
Speaker
What we do at Coalition Z is so many young people have this desire to be engaged because they've felt the consequences of political ineptitude, but they don't necessarily know how to start or where to go. So at Coalition Z, we're creating these opportunities for young people to kind of bridge the gap between the policy that impacts their lives and their own forms of action.
00:10:02
Speaker
If I may jump in super quickly, something Charlotte was just speaking reminded me of something I saw actually recently on on TikTok, actually, and someone was comparing the our generation with like the baby boomer generation and kind of talking about how our generation really was like
00:10:21
Speaker
raised in crisis and how while the Baby Boomer generation started with World War II, we started with 9-11 and the following war on terrorism and it started with this early access to violence. I remember one of my first memories watching TV was about the financial collapse and that was something that many members of a generation were
00:10:44
Speaker
always more very aware of from it from a young age. And I think kind of adding on to what Charlotte was saying, what this little video showed me was that like our generation has consistently experienced a lot of national issues and have seen them firsthand. And I think that's kind of mobilized us to action.
00:11:07
Speaker
I can agree with you. I think there's certainly a lot of people want to say that one generation is like another generation. And it's really hard to do that because the world just changes so much between generations. And that's essentially how generations are developed. But you bring up this idea of crisis. And for baby boomers and silent generation and the generation that came before them, the GI and the great generation, they're
00:11:31
Speaker
They were raised in crisis, but they saw crisis very differently than I think young people today see crisis because crisis existed, but it didn't feel like it could be very well in your backyard because the way that we're able to tune into technology. You bring up the war on terrorism and you bring up everything that has happened in terms of war post 9-11.
00:11:52
Speaker
That is something that we've been able to see very real footage of. Whereas way back in like in World War II and wars before that, you might get some of that on your news, but it's very rare because people don't really have access to television like they do today. And you might get something in the newspaper. And so I definitely agree with your point in that.
00:12:11
Speaker
Yes, all generations have their element of crisis, but how they're exposed to that crisis has a huge impact on the way that they react to it. And I, every day, am amazed by your generation and the way that you can look at such mature content and in some ways very scary and frightening content and say, how can I be a part of making it better instead of running away from that problem? And I really do commend you on that. And I'm so excited for your generation to become in these spaces where you are leading the conversation.
00:12:40
Speaker
But you've mentioned a few times about politicians, elected leaders, government officials.
Leadership and Engagement Expectations for Gen Z
00:12:46
Speaker
When it comes to Generation Z, what do you think that this generation is looking for in political leaders and government officials?
00:12:53
Speaker
So I feel like with government officials, a lot of what we're looking for, as you've seen with like the rise of people like AOC and like the squad and others, is a real progressive movement and for the most part, and wanting to see concrete change after inaction from
00:13:13
Speaker
both parties for so long. So supporting progressive candidates has been a lot of our platform recently, but also just giving people the ability to understand and form their own political views. Because often in our schools, we lack the civic education needed to form those opinions and to
00:13:32
Speaker
to come up with concrete ideas about policy and about elected officials. So giving people resources to understand how to form their own opinions and what these people are actually presenting. So it's not just their personality and how many advertisements they get that gets people elected, but rather the policies they truly support and the agendas that they want to promote
00:14:01
Speaker
for the welfare of people. Quickly adding on to that, I definitely agree with everything that Durga said, but I also would argue that what Generation Z wants from our elected officials is honestly pretty similar from what I think previous generations wanted from their elected officials when they were coming of age, coming of political age and civic age or whatever. I think it's basically they want elected officials who are engaged in their communities, who are doing the work
00:14:31
Speaker
who are listening to their communities, who are members of the communities, not outsiders, who just like come in for photo ops and events. I know, just like a little quick anecdote, I know a lot of a lot of young progressives in New York support Jamal Bowman in the New York 16 congressional race. Because a big thing that he's been pointing out about the incumbent who's running is that the incumbent is never in the district. He basically lives in Maryland. I think people want people in the district and also people who will listen to these new ideas.
00:15:00
Speaker
and will listen to the new views that Generation Z has. And I think that's a pretty universal desire with younger generations when they're getting into politics. I think obviously it manifests itself differently now because Generation Z looks at the world differently than say the generations of the 1980s did when they were coming of age. Obviously we look at it differently, but I think it's the same universal desire.
00:15:25
Speaker
Yeah, just to add on to that quickly, I think that when we think about the kind of disconnect between young people and those who are elected, it's really important to think about it on a generational level. There's so many differences between Generation Z, things that Josephine pointed out living in this kind of environment of crisis, but also things that you Megan pointed out about technology and how
00:15:51
Speaker
technology and social movements, I think have really changed the values of this generation to be inclusive and to amplify voices that haven't been amplified before. And I think that the value system is so different between young people and then
00:16:09
Speaker
the mostly baby boomers and older people that have been put in office. That's on a political level in terms of the policies that they advocate for, but that's also, I think, on a value level.
00:16:24
Speaker
That's why young people are excited by people like AOC and Jamal Bowman, like Josephine said, Charles Booker, all these young progressives who are promising something that's so different than the kind of standard status quo politician that's become so ingrained in what our democracy looks like. So you all bring up the fact that you've even identified it, that there is a disconnect right now. And some people we've even seen in a little bit in our research that
00:16:51
Speaker
Some people in Generation Z are a little checked out by politics and government and the whole political system. From your perspective and experiences, why do you think that is? Yeah. I think that the reason, honestly, the main reason for this is that there's an educational crisis in our country. I saw a statistic yesterday from the Pew Research Center that said that only 6% of young people are asked at school to register to vote.
00:17:16
Speaker
and all the data proves that if you're registered, you're more likely to vote. If you vote in your first presidential election, you're more likely to become a lifelong voter. So these things start at a very young age, and they often start when you're in school and you're receptive to kind of the civic lessons. What that is to say that young people receive their civic education, or they should at least when they're in public school, when they're receptive to the lessons of what it means to be
00:17:44
Speaker
a good American citizen. But when that civic education is not delivered to children, there's no, you know, the opportunity has passed and there's really much less that you can do with a young person after they've left your school system. So I think we need to really reassess how we teach young people. And there's no reason why someone should come out of a public school system or any school system and not know how to engage with the democracy that they've basically
00:18:15
Speaker
That is to say that everyone should know how to vote, whether it's absentee in person, they should know when to vote, where to vote, how to vote. These are things that should be covered by our school system and that should be followed up on. And there's really just not effort there. And if there was effort there and if people recognize the opportunity, and this is all intentional too, then I really think that that could be groundbreaking. And just the other thing is I think that if people who
00:18:36
Speaker
been taught off of.
00:18:45
Speaker
who kind of understood how to reach young people, which often is through social media and the internet and found young people where they're at. I truly believe, and I think Durga and Josephine believe this too, and there are a lot of other organizations that share this belief and that's why they do the work that they do, that this can be the generation that votes. This generation is more connected and
00:19:06
Speaker
the interactions that people have from across the country, online, across the world, whatever it may be, that's all opportunity to create a generation of civically involved people if they had the information.
00:19:20
Speaker
Yeah, just really quickly, Charlotte, I definitely agree with everything you just said, that was really good. I think another reason why we see a lack, I guess, of civic engagement besides education is going back to the fact that our generation has been through like
00:19:37
Speaker
crisis after crisis after crisis. And if you're being like if you're in a frontline community that is affected by this crisis, it is it is easy to just like be be focused on that and and not really pay attention to politics because having the ability to like spend free time working for candidates
00:19:58
Speaker
is a privilege in a sense, where if your family is being affected by all these crises, that's not necessarily something you can
00:20:11
Speaker
not everyone can do, if that makes sense. So I mean, I think I definitely think part of it, I think education is incredibly important. But I also think part of it is that our generation has been through so much. And at some point, there's only so much that people can focus and handle. And I think education makes it better to like, make sure that this information is easily accessible for everyone, because then like the barrier to learning is also its own issue. But I think there are there are lots of issues. And I think
00:20:41
Speaker
That's probably one of them. So you've talked a lot about areas where there's certainly gaps. And I agree with both of you that there are
00:20:52
Speaker
some major educational opportunities that we have. And I truly believe schools should be the place that your civic education starts. And that is just the beginning. But you should be able to leave high school with all the tools that you need to not only vote, but be a good citizen in our country and in a variety of different avenues for doing that.
Mobilizing Gen Z: Strategies for Engagement
00:21:12
Speaker
Beyond that, and you've touched on some of the social media and the technology aspects of it, what do you think are some other ways that we can encourage members of Generation Z to get politically active and register to vote and actually go out and vote? For those who are listening, what would you suggest to those people to help encourage Generation Z to get to the polls?
00:21:34
Speaker
Well, first off, I think that something that's been a tactic that's been used on a couple of political campaigns that I've worked with, but I think is super can be spread widely is the idea of relational organizing, which is that the most influence that you have over people is within your own network.
00:21:56
Speaker
And then your own network builds their own network. And then that network builds its own network. And then you have a huge network of people who feel comfortable within their own network and will do the work because they're working for their own network.
00:22:11
Speaker
whereas say if someone you don't know just like goes in and starts like talking to you and working with you, yeah you might be receptive to them but it's definitely not the same as if your friend reaches out to you and asks you if you want to work with them and work on developing this project and work on helping people vote and work on civic education. So I think part of it is really really tapping into existing networks of people and existing communities that have developed and partnering with these communities and
00:22:39
Speaker
working with them to get this information out into their networks and then even more informally just working with just people like you know people you meet and having them spread information and work on organizing their networks and then eventually have that spread out to other networks if that makes sense. Yeah and just to add on to that I think at Coalition Z we kind of think about voting policy in a
00:23:07
Speaker
policy in a policy-like way and then also in a social-like way. In the policy sense, voting is way harder than it should be. Even in states like New York and California that are deemed really liberal or inclusive or whatever it may be, it's so much harder to vote than it should be. Even now, there's a primary election on Tuesday here in New York and
00:23:30
Speaker
a lot of people have been unable to request their absentee ballots. And we just got early voting this year because of a ton of lobbying work that happened for decades before that. So we need to dismantle the restrictions to voting and we need to make it easier for all people who are able to vote. For all of American history, voting has been restrictive and it's nothing new, but it's also remained a problem because it prevents outcomes. And then in the social,
00:24:00
Speaker
kind of way that we think about it is how Josephine described relational organizing and then also kind of using social media on the internet and finding young people where they are through mass media campaigns or education campaigns or whatever it may be and getting those resources to people so that they know how to vote, the process of voting, where to vote, when to vote, and then actually turning out. Because to be quite honest, a lot of
00:24:29
Speaker
the information is just not widely circulated and so there have been this year a bunch of campaigns like here in New York there's um funded by the mayor's office um called NYC Votes and they created an ambassador program where
00:24:44
Speaker
about 30 young people across New York City boroughs share information about voting over their social media. And that's to create peer to peer connections that surround like civic engagement and voting to spread information because it just really isn't there. No, yeah, completely. Just to reiterate what like Charlotte and Josephine said and also add that I mean, so many organizations are going out of their way to help this because a lot of
00:25:14
Speaker
Basically, a lot of things are lacking in the infrastructures that exist for young people. Our friends at Rock the Vote are using this vote tripling tactic that I'm sure you've heard about or discussed, but it's basically pledging to tell two of your closest friends that they must go out and vote, and then they go and do that to their two closest friends.
00:25:38
Speaker
having each person go and change to other people's point of view and then also have them go and get out the vote at such a minuscule level, how that escalates at such a large scale, is really important to note. Just making sure that people understand that their voice truly matters is the most important thing when discussing with young people about it.
Balancing Activism with Youthful Spirit
00:26:03
Speaker
I think everything that you've shared is absolutely spot on and very creative, but also very attainable. I think anyone listening can recognize the way that they can play a role in encouraging Generation Z to become educated on civic engagement and voting and actually go out and do it. So I want to thank all three of you for the wonderful insights you've shared. But I like to wrap up every interview and every episode with asking my guests what their favorite thing about their Generation Z peers are.
00:26:32
Speaker
I'm really curious to hear what you all might share about this. I think my favorite thing about our generation is how many people who I know and something I really admire in a lot of the people I know is our ability to balance being young and being kids and having fun with also really tackling head on incredibly serious issues. Like I always see these tweets that are like Gen Z kids will like
00:27:03
Speaker
joke with their friends about how they like can't order food and then go out and like organize protests or something. And like, I think that kind of sums up something I really admire, because although we are a generation that has dealt with so many issues, like, first of all, we're, we're handling them, we're organizing, we're doing the work. And that's something I really love about so many members of our generation who are really doing the work. But then also, like,
00:27:34
Speaker
I feel so many of us still have the time to balance with really trying to still be kids and have fun. I agree with you. There's a lot of flack that they're like, the 16-year-olds aren't changing the world yet. They're being 16. Let them be 16, but also they're going to school you on major social issues. I think that Generation Z is such a good blend of both of those things, of being incredibly educated and eloquent on important issues, but also
00:28:03
Speaker
remembering to like have fun. And as you said, be a kid or be a young person. You're allowed to do both. And sometimes I think older generations forget that. Charlotte, Durga, what are some of your favorite things about Generation Z?
Global Connectivity and Community Understanding
00:28:16
Speaker
Yeah, I would say this is a little similar to Josephine's, but I would say that my favorite thing about Generation Z is how passionate everyone is. I've lived in a few different states and I feel like I'm in a few different locations and in a few different environments. That's all to say that I've just lived in different places. And I have constantly been impressed by how passionate and how involved young people are
00:28:42
Speaker
on a lot of different things, on a lot of different levels. So there are people that are super involved with politics or people that are involved with like mass human rights campaigns. There are people that love doing research and do more STEM related kind of activities. But the common thread is how much passion young people bring to these activities. I think
00:29:06
Speaker
A lot of older people will criticize young people for seeing them as lazy or seeing them as being on technology too much or whatever the older criticism is. And for better, for worse, Generation Z has grown up a lot faster than other generations have. We've been exposed to a lot more at a much younger age. It's a little hard to live in.
00:29:32
Speaker
the bubble of your life because of the internet and because of media. And I think that's given Generation Z a level of passion and enthusiasm and commitment to just be involved with whatever they find interesting. Some older generations may not have had because of the access to information. And I just find that really inspiring. And it's been, I've loved having the conversations with my peers that I've been able to have about what
00:30:00
Speaker
they love to do and why they love to do it and what inspires them to do what they do. Yeah, completely. And I feel like for me as well, what I've seen in my peers is that people were all so connected, you know, with the blessing or curse of what it is, is social media really getting people to question themselves and question
00:30:23
Speaker
their own views by being exposed to so many different sources of information. And with the news, although we see many issues with how things are portrayed today, having groups of people who can come together and understand topics and try to make sense of what is going on in the world
00:30:46
Speaker
in the world and make sense of it together and also tie it back to our own experiences and just connect with people all over the world I think has also been such a vital part in shaping Generation Z's identity in that we're connected to people from different states and from different countries and people who we would have never ever gotten the chance to speak with.
00:31:09
Speaker
I'm sure to be connected with you is one amazing thing that we wouldn't have gotten the chance to do. I think that being able to share and converse about ideas and policies has just shaped us in such a different way.
00:31:25
Speaker
feel that other generations haven't gotten the chance to experience, especially as they were younger, and coming of age. That has been shaping us, everyone on a personal level, and then also in the scope of our generation. I agree with all three of your statements, and Durga, to your point,
00:31:47
Speaker
You all have the ability to be connected to people around the world in ways that other generations, like you mentioned, would never even dreamed of. And in some ways, I think that is going to be the thing that helps you all change our world too, is that you see the world as one big community. You see not just your state. You don't just see our country, but you see the fact that we play a larger role in something much bigger.
00:32:07
