From Thomas Paine to Gen Z: The Evolution of Print Resistance | Promises of the Revolution Pt. IV

Teen journalists in Boston reflect on the meanings and repercussions of the Declaration of Independence's words 250 years later.  “Making Headlines" goes behind the scenes at “Teens in Print” magazine and explores how the importance of questioning authority through print journalism connects youth today with earlier Revolutionary patriots, despite differences in perspective.  In collaboration with Mass Humanities and GBH News, the PROMISES OF THE REVOLUTION documentary series presents four distinct stories examining American Revolution history through the lens of Black, LGBT+, youth, and Indigenous voices in Massachusetts. From Marblehead to Mashpee, residents tackle the 250th anniversary, weaving history with today's challenges to show why our past matters. At GBH, we love having the opportunity to highlight the people in our own community. This fall we’re putting an even bigger spotlight on the stories closest to home through GBH Local Lens.
