do something,â the young activist told VICE.

She would organize family holidays and methodically plan things out, providing detailed lists on what needs to be prepared to her parents, her mother, Kristin Hogue, told VICE. âThere was one time where she wanted to go on vacation and I received a letter essayâI think she was nine at the timeâand it was like, âWe havenât gone anywhere this summer and this is why we need to go,ââ Hogue said. âSo thereâs always been this organizing aspect of her personality. And not just wanting to organize herself, but everybody around her.â The mother-daughter pair moved from California last year, but were in their home state visiting family during the worst of the wildfire season, which devastated entire statesâthe Camp Fire alone destroyed nearly 14,000 homes and killed 85 people in northern California. It was that fire, her mother told VICE, combined with news of the largely unfinished COP24 climate talks and Thunbergâs protest, that inspired Villasenor. âI have always been very attached to the earth and wildlife. When I was little I would spend time at the river, the ocean and in the forest,â Villasenor said. âI was so upset watching so much of it burn.â âWe have all sorts of speakers and really prominent people in climate,â Hogue, who is pursuing a masterâs degree at Columbia, said. âIf thereâs a presentation on campus or something like that, sheâs like, âMom we have to go.'â Isra Hirsi, who turned 16 in February, is the oldest of the eco trio. Unlike Coleman and Villasenor, Hirsiâs passion for climate justice didnât come from an affinity for nature. As is the case for many immigrant youths, outdoor activities like skiing and hiking werenât big in her Somali-American family. Her parents are more into politics: Her father, Ahmed Hirsi, is a senior policy aide for a Minneapolis City Council member, while Hirsiâs mother is history-making (and recently controversial) Congresswoman Ilhan Omar. Hirsi remembers being brought to local forums and rallies as a child. Her earliest political memory is from first grade, when she was protesting at a local church over their exclusion of LGBTQ members. Since then, sheâs become a prominent youth leader as chair of the Minnesota High School Democrats and led Minnesotaâs student walkout for gun control last year. Her involvement in climate justice was triggered by the ominous report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that came out in October.

âMy little sister is in first grade and sheâs going to graduate high school in 2030, so to think that I get to have a childhood and she wonât even be able to reach adulthood [before things get worse]â Hirsi said over the phone. âI was like, wow, this is a really big issue that I need to think about.â She joined the green coalition Minnesota Canât Wait and helped roll out a proposal for the Minnesota Green New Deal, a localized adoption of the green proposal in Congress, sponsored by State Representative Frank Hornstein last month. (Her mother supports the national Green New Deal.) âShe knows her stuff really good and she has confidence, something that a lot of young girls of color might struggle with,â Hirsiâs father said of his eldest child. âSheâs not afraid to speak her mind and say her opinions, and thatâs beautiful to see that.â Like her mother, Hirsi has ambitions for public office. She keeps a crinkled sheet of paper with her checklist of goals on her bedroom wall, which include becoming a lawyer, running for mayor and, eventually, winning the presidency. âIâve had a set plan for myself since I was ten,â Hirsi admitted. âIâve always had these insane dreams for myself⦠and I want to prove to everyone that Iâm going to stick with them.â Those dreams seem less insane given the intense outpouring of press coverage the three strike leaders have gotten. So far, they have been covered by the Washington Post, The Nation, Teen Vogue, Gothamist, NBC News, Euronews, Spiegel Online, Greenpeace, Sierra Club Magazine, High Country News, and the list goes on. In between TV appearances and press interviews, the three teenagers communicate frequently with each other and what they call âState Leads,â fellow teenagers from around the country, through Slack to keep an eye on the movementâs local operations. The worldwide youth strike movement has garnered public support from scientists and labor unions through written statements. The three girls get plenty of support from their fellow students as well as parents and elected officials. Thatâs not to say they get universal praise: Coleman remembers one man drove past her solo protest and flipped her the finger, but the 12-year-old has developed a thick enough skin to laugh it off. She has more serious stuff to worry about. âIâm not going to leave my future in the hands of people who arenât doing anything,â Coleman said in our group chat. âWeâre already seeing the effects [of climate change], you can see it everywhere. You might even see it in your backyard.. Weâre just trying to survive.â Sign up for our newsletter to get the best of VICE delivered to your inbox daily. Follow Natasha Ishak on Twitter.
