Okay, here’s why the Mario Savio Memorial Lecture & Young Activist Award is close to my heart:
So, in tribute to Mario and to kick off nominations this year, I share these inspiring clips featuring young public orators. I clearly have biases, so if you have a video you would rather see on this list, please comment below to share it with me. If I get 10+ video suggestions, I’ll include them in a sequel to this post. Let the jams begin.
Peace, –dom.
