Shared Platform - 'OK Boomer!' - The Promise and Peril of Generational Thinking, J Croft

James Croft, Leader Zoom Meeting ID 384 422 5785 "Boomers are racist and out of touch!" "Millennials and shrill and self-important!" Recently, it seems like generational divides have been worsening, as the political, economic, and cultural differences between people in different age cohorts become more extreme. But what is the validity of taking a generational approach to human behavior? Are people really defined by their generational cohort as much as is commonly assumed? And what does this mean for the potential of cross-generational solidarity? James will explore these questions and more as examines the promise - and the peril - of generational thinking.
