This will make for an interesting discussion in my class on care, public things, and democracy this week. Never a dull moment!

Many thanks go to Patrick Hayden and Chamsy el-Ojeili, who put this all together. I'm also grateful to the JIPT team—Tony Lang and @negsaunders.bsky.social for providing me the space to reflect publicly on the themes of #hope and #hopelessness in this time of global #crisis  🙏

In reference to the brave work of groups like the Sunrise Movement and Youth v. Apocalypse, and individuals like Greta Thunberg, I talk about the agency of children & what it might for more radical political action to be taken to care for the world in this age of #polycrisis #anthropocene ...

This discussion of #children is developed largely terms of the work of David Oswell, Michael Cummings, J. Marshall Beier, Anna Holzscheiter, Ali Watson, and others, as well as my prior work on "care." This article about #youth #activism also discusses #climatechange

A radically inclusive theory of #democracy, my "caring,” “child-friendly” approach to politics explores the possibility — a matter of #hope — of allowing #children to act as political equals alongside their adult counterparts.

This article explores the utopian potential of Article 12 of the UNCRC. It is in terms of this Article—which pertains to children’s “right to be heard"—that I argue that children should be treated as equal citizens within our world’s various spaces of democracy.

Following in Obama and Biden's footsteps here ... So strange to me to be an ex (vice) president and need/want an agent 🤷🏼‍♂️
