American University Hosts: A Conversation with advocate Mary Beth Tinker on youth bearing the Weight of the World

Washington, D.C.: The Museum of Contemporary American Teenagers (MoCAT) and American University Library present When the Weight of the World Won't Wait, stories of teenagers and young adults throughout history who have shouldered society's burdens - from protecting our climate to fighting our wars.

Through art and discussion, Weight of the World asks audiences to consider what these burdens do to our young people and what these demands say about us.
