Although youth activism often is sparked by unexpected events, the seeds of activism are planted in learning environments that cultivate community, critical reflection, and sociopolitical action. Recent studies suggest promising outcomes from transformative student voice (TSV) programming, but more work is needed that assesses the impact of TSV participation for youth of color. We surveyed 294 students from 12 public high schools and found that students in TSV activities reported more critical reflection, sociopolitical efficacy, and participation in sociopolitical action than their non-TSV peers. Additionally, using regression analysis, we found that years of involvement in TSV activities predicted participation in sociopolitical action. These findings are significant, as they indicate how multiyear engagement in TSV activities can facilitate sociopolitical action in the youth of color.

社会政治发展的变革性学生声音：将有色人种青年发展为政治演员

尽管青年激进主义往往是由意外事件引发的，但激进主义的种子已在培养社区、批判性反思和社会政治行动的学习环境中播下。最近的研究表明，变革性学生声音 (TSV) 编程的成果令人鼓舞，但需要开展更多工作来评估 TSV 参与对有色青年的影响。我们对来自 12 所公立高中的 294 名学生进行了调查，发现参加 TSV 活动的学生比非 TSV 同龄人报告了更多的批判性反思、社会政治效能和对社会政治行动的参与。此外，使用回归分析，我们发现参与 TSV 活动的年限预示着参与社会政治行动。这些发现意义重大，
