Freya Proudman drops into the café to talk about building a youth caucus from the ground up. Rejecting the notion that youth engagement is just about free pizza, Freya underlines the importance of offering young people the opportunity to get involved and contribute in myriad ways to the effort of reclaiming the America we love.

This conversation touches on:

• The current dearth of DA leaders under the age of 30.

• Why young people are not just our future, but our active present.

• The zine and other grassroots organizing efforts undertaken by DA UK.

• The realities of aging out of—or into—different classifications and leadership opportunities.
