The Issues of Youth Censorship | Olivia Orlewicz | TEDxYouth@DoyleAve

Olivia believes that a truly democratic society nurtures difficult questions and discussions. Parents and educators play a pivotal role in being open to questions and topics that might be uncomfortable. Difficult conversations that might not have a right answer need to occur at school and at home. Olivia's passions are horseback riding, writing creative stories, drawing, archery, and sharing her beliefs and opinions on animal rights and agriculture. She loves listening to music and editing videos. Olivia's favourite music artist is Billie Eilish. She loves watching movies and her favourites are (almost) all the Star Wars movies. Olivia achieved her junior black belt in Kung Fu in December of 2018. Her favorite subject in school is English because she enjoys reading and writing. Olivia became vegan when she was 10 because she realized that she loves animals too much to eat them. She is very energetic and outgoing but can sometimes get nervous when meeting new people. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
