Earlier in the week, Shailene and Kendrick Sampson made an appearance on The Young Turks show, where they discussed why these issues matter.

“The root of the problem is fear. There’s a reason we are all so narcissistic and think our planet, our lives are the most important lives out there. We are so disconnected from another human being that we expect everyone to be our moon and revolve around our planet because it’s about fear and survival. We don’t live in a country where everyone is thriving and everyone is just trying to scrape by,” she explained.
