We do need more young activists. I am a 23 and an occupy supporter in N Cal. Sometimes it is frustrating to hear that this is a "youth powered movement" when, from what I've seen is that it is a truly multigenerational movement. We badly need the youth, I'm not even talking people my age, we need high school kids, even younger. The apathy is hard to break through, but hopefully, with time....
