Worldwide protests led by Gen-Z have sprung up around the world. Young people face a future overshadowed by economic instability, limited job options, and climate change. Decades of neoliberalism have led to the decay of public schools, job prospects, and public goods and services as a whole. While the far right has moved to use this calamity to their advantage, young people are rising up globally to reject both fascism and neoliberalism and instead advocate for actual good governance that invests in public goods and invests in their futures.
