Young people have long used-and essentially created-popular culture
to explore, define and express who they are. For many, popular
culture is also a tool of survival. Gone are the days when a set of
proscriptive programs or institutions were needed for young people
to transition to adulthood. Today, youth culture is communicated
and expanded through information technology-particularly social
media-enabling young people to remain relevant and to engage the
world. Yet, as with previous generations, youth culture is often a
cause of concern for adults and policy makers. This collection of
new essays focuses on modern youth popular culture and its
influence on communities. Topics include social justice and youth
mobilization in Ferguson, Missouri, social media and sexual
literacy among LGBT youth, and youth culture's influence on
children's sports.
