"Young People Who Rock"is talk about some young people who do some amazing things in their life.It's a weekly interview.This video has several stories about their biograph.



First person is called Alicia Mixson.

Alicia Mixson is put her own life to take care of her brother.Her brother was lose his legs by the accident.He need someone to take care and stay with him.Alicia did it without any complain.She move out Florida and go to Texas with him.She just 26 years old.She said that's just a chapter of her life,she still can do something to make her feel good.

I think she has a very beautiful heart.It's Love.Love is unselfish she showed us.
It's so hard to give up everything and just take care of someone.But she did.
If you were Alicia,would you do the same thing?


Alexander Heffner is an editor and co-founder of Scoop08.com.The Internet can provide young people to have a voice that about the social and world.

I think it's so meaningful.One person can affect other young people.Also,Life is like that.We can affect that people around us.


Megan Kerrigan & Rashia Bell,they have a unusual idea about prom's shopping.They help a lot girls who worry about their prom.There're provides high school girls with makeup, accessories and prom dresses.Make sure they will have a good time in their prom.

I think it's a very good idea.Many girls always worry about what should they wear on the prom.It's a very new and amazing idea for them!

Connor, Hayley, and Emma Gilbert,they're triplet and just seventeen years old.But they do something in their own way to make action about the Polar bears.They want to educate other young people on climate change and how its effect on polar bears.

They're so brave and smart!They're so young but still can did something to change the world.I think that's so amazing!

Finally,I think all of them were so awesome!Although they are young people,they still can do something powerful!It's no excuse for us to do nothing and say that we're young!They can,WE can!
