This is a video for “Oxygen”, a song by Willy Mason. This song came out when Mason was 19. Watching this video reaffirmed something for me: The voice of our youth must be heard.
As educators we must allow our students to dream big and speak their mind. They are just as curious, concerned, and invested in our world as we are. As Mason sings in the song,
THE KIDS OF TODAY MUST CARRY THE LIGHT
This is a great song that not only addresses some powerful issues but shows that we must give our youth a voice. We must provide them with the skills to question, inquire, and respond.
