Cartoon: Generating a gap

Marlena Reinshagen, Staff Writer • June 4, 2024
As the values and belief systems in modern activism have drastically shifted, many older generations are finding it harder to keep up. Shifting values are making it more difficult for the generational gap to be pulled closer, allowing disagreements and stereotypes in each generation to accumulate. Older generations tend to be disapproving of younger generations, viewing them as unfair and lazy. On the flip side, younger generations may percieve older people to be more stubborn and close-minded. Although these stereotypes are easy to fall into, it’s important to remember what you stand for – and to reach across that gap to create a better society. (Marlena Reinshagen)
