Episode 1: The Silent Minor-

Only 23% of young Americans call themselves politically active. But I was curious whether the rest were as disengaged as they claimed. The problem is that the people least likely to talk about politics are the hardest to find. So I spent six weeks in swing states—not with polls or clipboards, but talking face to face with the people most likely to say no. Turns out, youth who claim they're not political people have a lot to say about why. In this first episode, I introduce the project and the voices you'll hear throughout the series. We'll preview what's ahead—identity and stereotypes, the negativity that keeps people away, social media's role, and the question of whether any of this actually matters. Spoiler: being apolitical isn't indifference. It's a choice.
