Lakewood High School junior Spencer Wilcox is 16 and, unlike a lot of kids his age, is very invested in politics. He’s the president of the Colorado High School Democrats, and has worked on voter registration drives and educational campaigns to get more young people involved.
Wilcox has been looking forward to participating in the Democratic caucuses ahead of the June 2022 primaries, thanks to a 2019 Colorado law that lets 17-year-olds do that and vote in state and presidential primaries if they’ll be 18 by the time the general election comes around.

After the recent mass shootings in Atlanta, in which six women of Asian descent were killed, communities of color are mobilizing together to battle racism. “The fact that so many Blacks and Hispanics marched in solidarity with Asian groups … is a positive indication that minorities see injustice against one group as injustice against all,” says Earl Ofari Hutchinson, author of “Why Black Lives Do Matter.”
Yet he wonders whether that cross-activism will go beyond policing and anti-racism. “Will that unity translate into unity … on such issues as voter suppression, housing, jobs and education, and health disparities?” he asks.
