Welcome to our podcast series, Hear Us Speak. Your hosts are Michelle Alas and Caroline Welch, two high school students in the Bay Area who seek to illuminate youth opinions on social issues that matter to us. We want our views to be heard by members of our community with the intent of enacting real change. Featuring a variety of guest speakers, spanning multiple contemporary social issues, and discussing the topics that need to be discussed, we could not be more thrilled to bring this project to you. We hope you listen and learn something new.
