I think the voice that we have as youth is really distinctive.

我認為我們年輕人說出來的話是很明顯不同的。

It's really raw, and it doesn't see through a lot of the BS that adults kinda get caught up in.

是很純粹的，不會像大人們的言論一樣輕易被歸類為胡說八道 (BS, or Bullshit) 。

I'm happy about today because I know I'm gonna get out there. I'm gonna be in the streets.

You know, usually a lot of people think that the individual can't make a humongous difference.

很多人可能會認為自己做不出什麼大改變。

But I actually think that you can.

但我強烈認為我們可以。

It's always hard to be the first person to make that step.

當第一個總是最難的。

Once you have an example, it's inspiring and it's easier to follow someone.

但當第一個例子出現之後，後面就會有更多人被啟發，也會有更多人跟上腳步。

Growing up in this generation people can kind of dismiss you.

Obviously, our country's extremely polarized right now.

現在，我們的國家正處於兩極分化的狀態。

And I think that, especially on social media, it's so hard to have a discussion.

而且我覺得，尤其在社群網站上，真的很難進行討論或對話。

But when you're face-to-face with someone and you have those kinds of conversations it's so much more productive.

但在與人面對面的時候所進行的談話都會有效許多。

I do think actions like these force people to listen.

If there are so many people involved in a movement and so many people, um, who are striking for something they believe in then the politicians and the billionaires will be forced to listen.

如果有這麼多人參與這場運動、為他們相信的事罷課，那麼政治人物和億萬富翁們都會被迫要聽見我們的聲音。
