Originally from Bloomington, Indiana, Lillian plans to continue her studies at Smith College with a double major in government and statistics. Their special focus is on social justice, particularly racial justice, as they engaged in a club that did a research project on their school’s inclusivity and worked alongside a group of students, teachers, and administrators in her school corporation to create their school system’s first district-wide antiracism policy. Lillian is also passionate about youth activism and helping to empower young people to use their voices to stand up for their opinions, rights, and beliefs.
