TXT Unpacks "Minisode1: Blue Hour" EP, Songwriting, and More pedal kids bike My need to be an activist came very much from a need to understand history. And how things that happened before have influenced what’s happening now. We covered Rosa Parks for, like, three days in history. But there is so much more than what is in the history books. To me, activism is a need to know, a need to explain, and a need to help. At first I was very scared of the term. I thought, Am I actually doing enough? Then I realized that oftentimes existing is activism in itself. For instance, I think it’s brave for girls to go to college when there is a one-in-four chance that they will be raped. That in itself is activism. I wish all girls and people of color called themselves activists.YS: pedal kids bike Rowan emits beams of light and happiness onto other people. And it’s not something she can stop, nor does she try to. Her work, her heartfelt humanitarianism, her art, and her friendships all blossom from a belief that everybody should be allowed to be and live in their truest form, without pressure or recrimination. She is the friend I talk to when I need to process the fragile state of our world, or when I am craving new music or a film to fill my spirit.ROWAN ON YARA pedal kids bike Like [activist] DeRay McKesson says, “You’re not born woke”; it’s such a learning process. I started thinking about the feminism I was initially being sold, which was basically that boys and girls should be equal. But there are intersections, and a lot of reasons why it is easier for me to achieve that equality than it is for some of my friends. You have to always question your politics: Am I being as inclusive as I possibly can? Is this thing that I said, could it be xenophobic? My worst fear is someone writing, “Rowan Blanchard, queen of feminism!” I’m like no. I am figuring this out just as much as you are. I am constantly trying to check my privilege. I sometimes get worried that my feminism is, like, too American. We can get lost in Taylor Swift fighting Kanye West instead of being like, there are so many Syrian refugees!Photo: Sean ThomasY+R ON THE FUTURERB: pedal kids bike
