Kevin Lopez Cruz is a seasoned all-rounder and has made waves on many levels and stages of government. As a senior undergraduate and an English major, he has had leadership roles on the Hispanic Student Association, Student Government Association, and Bowie State’s Thurgood Marshall Library Board of Advisors.

As the founder of the Maryland Latino Electoral History Project, he recently got elected for the Prince George’s County Democratic Central Committee. During the technological and political situation that is currently underway, he has a strong perspective on what is to come for the nation on all levels: state, local, and federal.

His insight points to bigger questions surrounding youth participation in civics as a whole: What can be done to increase and improve engagement? Will history repeat itself if it is not preserved and archived accurately? What if everyone had the willpower to expand their understanding of how historical events affect where we are now? Will the tomorrow we anticipate be how we imagined it?
