Answer:
Historically, young people have played a leading role in the social reforms that have taken place both in America and in the rest of the world. Thus, the drive and vitality of these has been the main motor in the main revolutionary movements of the nation: young African Americans, promoted by Martin Luther King and Malcolm X, began to confront the segregationist society of the mid-1900s; the hippies of the 1960s and 1970s were the first to demonstrate against the war and violence of the Cold War; Young people today are the main drivers of the Black Lives Matter movement; and so many other examples.
This happens because it is young people who have the greatest expectations for the future and hopes for change in the nation, since they are the people who have the most time and possibilities to generate real changes.
