Summary
The Gray Panthers is an organization looking to free the old and young by changing the cruel, unfair, and immoral stereotypes against both groups in America. Operating on their motto “Age and Youth in Action”, the Gray Panthers looks to unite the elderly with the young to fight for social and economic equality.[1] The Gray Panthers seek to demolish the label already placed on the old and young as being less significant members of society. The Gray Panthers also promote awareness towards “universal health care; jobs with a living wage and the right to organize; the preservation of Social Security; affordable housing; access to quality education; economic justice; environment; peace; and challenging ageism, sexism, and racism”.[2] For more than 30 years, the Gray Panthers have continued to encourage change based on the beliefs of social equality.
