“I can't stress enough: This is our world, our society, and we have every right to advocate for these issues,” Green says to her fellow young activists in a profile and Q&A on Mashable.com. 

The article, written by Chase DiBenedetto, describes many of Green’s efforts toward, as Green puts it, “increasing racial representation and decision-making power for people of color.” These include working in the Youth Court restorative justice program for Nassau County, N.Y.; interning for Congresswoman and former New York District Attorney Kathleen Rice; delivering a talk at TEDxAmherstCollege; organizing the Leadership Brainery's National Impact Summit at Harvard Law School; and writing for Teen Vogue and Forbes

The article recounts Green’s inspirational 2017 meeting with the late civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis, and also touches upon her senior English thesis at Amherst-- “a series of short stories featuring women and girls of color, with a focus on the power of representation in literature.”
