In this episode we continue our conversation with Jaime Martinez, Jr., a student at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland. Martinez exemplifies, not only an engaged learner, but also an individual who wants to use his considerable talents to make a positive difference in the world. During our conversation we touch on a number of issues including lessons he learned when the COVID pandemic closed his high school shortly before his graduation and delayed his in-person arrival at Hopkins.  With sensitivity and insight, he reflects on social inequities that affect schools, changes in schooling that he would like to see, and the ways in which social media can foster or undermine democracy.
