As you know we are celebrating Youth
month…
we’d love to hear what you think:
Q: What's your view on youth month?
A:
The Youth month is suppose to be about empowering the youth and commemorating
June 16, not a mindless celebration that we are witnessing.
Q: How do you celebrate it?
A:
As a young man myself, I also share as much knowledge as possible with my
peers, not only in June but throughout the year.
Q:
Any thoughts to share with our peers about the month.
A:
Jews don’t celebrate the Holocaust, the Japanese don’t celebrate Hiroshima,
they commemorate. Let’s do likewise, there’s nothing to celebrate.
