Gen-Z for Change is a nonprofit activist group recruiting young people to flood anti-abortion sites following the news about Roe v. Wade. TikTok has become a vehicle for digital activism and following Monday night’s news of the leaked draft opinion revealing the Supreme Court’s plans to overturn Roe v. Wade, young activists went online to organize ways to fight back. Gen-Z for Change is one of the groups that quickly responded. Launched in 2020, it joins the growing number of activist groups and movements, like March For Our Lives and Sunrise Movement, led by young people who want to protect their rights and create a better future for their generation. Between Monday night and Tuesday morning, Gen-Z for Change posted three TikTok videos (all of which racked up millions of views) about the draft opinion, informing their followers about what it means and how they can get involved. Aside from educating its followers online, the group is recruiting coders to build systems that can crash future anti-abortion sites, especially in the states where abortions would be completely outlawed. YPulse research found that abortion / birth control is a social cause that young people are passionate about right now.
