Summary
Cnet’s Erin Carson wrote a piece called “How Gen Z harnessed the internet and destroyed the generation wars”, which focuses on how the younger generation, often called Gen Z, is struggling to do what every generation before it struggled to do, which is define itself. What’s different is the scale at which the internet plays into definition, because Gen Z kids have never known a world without being online.
Starring Tom Merritt, Sarah Lane, Chris Ashley, Len Peralta, Roger Chang, Joe.
