Young Adults Speak Out

“The times, they are a-changin’ . . .” Bob Dylan first sang those words more than 40 years ago and he’s kept singing them to enthusiastic crowds, both young and old, ever since. The song continues, “come writers and critics, who prophesize with your pen, and keep your eyes wide, the chance won’t come again.”

This year, the Washington Memo looks to the writers and critics of a new generation, as it adds the perspectives of Anabaptist young adults from around the world to its pages. As these emerging voices reflect on public policies and national legislation from their own contexts and experiences, we hope fellow church members and members of Congress will “please heed the call.”
