Growing up in the Deep South with left-leaning parents, I learned from a young age to keep my mouth shut about “my” political views when I was in middle and high school. I say “my” because as children, we do not really have an understanding of the world around us, so our “views” are simply an imprint of what our parents leave on us, and it is important to note the views bestowed upon us end up shaping our understanding and view of the world.
