Yang, along with LHS senior Michelle Tom and 10 other students, organized and promoted the Lexington Climate Strike, which took place on Friday, Sept. 20.
At 10 a.m., hundreds of students walked out of class and gathered on the LHS football field, holding signs with messages like “Our Future is Not for Profit,” and ‘Denial is Over!’ The students were also joined by older members of the Lexington community. State Representative Michelle Ciccolo and State Senators Mike Barrett and Cindy Friedman were also in attendance.
