Joining us today is Richard Jaeggi, Founder and Executive Director of the Gandhi Brigade, a youth voice project that was started in Silver Spring, Maryland. Inspired by the vision of Mahatma Gandhi to create local peace brigades, the project uses the media arts as a tool for connecting youth to their community and to critical issues in their world. The mission is to help young people realize their inner and collective power to become champions of the common good. Since its beginning the Gandhi Brigade has created dozens of social justice media pieces and is recognized in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area as a leader in the field of youth led social change.
