I heard students walking out saying ‘this makes me want to get out there and do something about these issues’ … If your talk was as influential on everyone else as it was on myself … we are gonna see some game changers out there.
There’s a lot of talk about engaging youth in world change--Kyle is unique because he’s actually part of the demographic.
Kyle understands the complex issues, but conveys them in a fun, simple way that engages a huge audience.
My favorite part about his message was doing what you love to create change in the world.
Fantastic! A great program! A great speaker!
