This book tackles the misconceptions about Gen Z and discusses their feelings about the world around them。 I enjoy reading about the different generations and this book really delved into what Gen Z deals with on a daily basis and how they might just end up changing the world。

This book tackles how the Gen Z feels about what is going on in the world right now。 What tragedies shaped their view of the world。 Since I am not a Gen Z this book was interesting。 The books give me an idea of what young people worry about and what they would want to change in the world。 It was a fascinating read。Thank you to #goodreads, @JohnDellaVolpe, and @StMartinsPress for a copy of this book。

As an educator, this book confirms a lot of what I already know about teenagers。 Its strength lies in the fact that it gives personal narratives that help prove those points。 The interviews and public research are engaging。 However, the demographic seems a bit selective。 I question whether the author would have the same results if rural kids were included (and why weren't they focused as much?) I have taught in rural America and can say that teenagers definitely see things differently (for insta As an educator, this book confirms a lot of what I already know about teenagers。 Its strength lies in the fact that it gives personal narratives that help prove those points。 The interviews and public research are engaging。 However, the demographic seems a bit selective。 I question whether the author would have the same results if rural kids were included (and why weren't they focused as much?) I have taught in rural America and can say that teenagers definitely see things differently (for instance, gun issues)。 Ignorance is what got Trump elected, and may have led to the shock when he was。 Sure, people like Thomas are mentioned in the book, but they are not representative of all。 These people stand out as examples of Trumpian extremism and are seen as anti-thetical to Generation Z, although they are a part of it。 Ch。 8 was the most spot on to me。 The people who stand out and get noticed really is identified well by the author。 He makes the great point of realizing the importance of considering what get's young people's attention。There are some interesting predictions at the end, as well。Overall, is there a confirmation bias going on here? I can't help but think there may be a particular view of the country that is portrayed as "correct" or "dominant" when there is indeed an alternative, even in the suburbs and the city where I currently reside。 We always seem to have an optimistic view of the younger generations- how they see things differently and are more accepting and will be the change that the country needs。 But that same generation that was marching against Vietnam are the same older generations who are carrying this new conservatism。 Obviously, this book made me think, and for that I am grateful。 It is a well-written book with some insights that will make you think about how our country depends on young people。 A critical reading would also make you think about how those young people are portrayed 。。。more
