What advice would you give to a high school junior looking to find an internship in their field of interest?

I'm currently an 11th grader in Texas, and it's been tough for me to find an internship relating to my field of interest (aerospace engineering). Although I have gotten recommendations from sources/connections, applying for them has been tough for me because most require me to be a U.S. Citizen (i.e. NASA). I'm currently in the PLTW Principles of Engineering class and plan on taking PLTW Aerospace Engineering and PLTW Engineering Design & Development next year. I want to apply the skills I've learned in my classes to real-life experiences but not sure what resources would help me achieve this.

How can I impact make a change through educating myself?

I am writing to you with passion for the change I want to see in this world. Not to bring up politics directly, but that is exactly why I feel a sudden urge to dive deeper into careers in advocacy for social justice and human rights. I know there are many jobs in journalism dealing with the discussion of topics like this, but I know I am way too biased to ever maintain a career in political journalism. I was just researching civil rights/advocacy jobs, and many have related majors that I should focus on and earn a degree in. While I am absolutely positively remaining and earning a bachelor's degree in LA/CAR Studies, I was wondering if there would be a minor or concentration, I could add to get more experience in the field of advocacy? Or if there are any clubs you are aware of, rather than putting myself into more debt, that I could join and become an active member? My main interest specifically with LAS is the international side of advocacy, but I also have an interest in civil rights pertaining to women, LGBTQ+, etc... I can't think of a specific one to focus on as I find importance in representation of all. I hope you can make sense of my word spaghetti. Thank you in advance, Hope

Is job shadowing a good way to see if you are interested in a certain field while in high school?

I have seen many ways you can gain experience and learn about a field while in high school, but I was wondering how helpful job shadowing is. My stepmom recommended I try and shadow a family friend of ours because she works at a local news station for news broadcasting and that is a secondary field I am interested in if I feel public relations won't work. What are the benefits of job shadowing? And should I try it out if possible?
