Synopsis

There are moments when the normal flow of time catches, hesitates, and shifts direction.

2020 was one of these moments.

Now, at this critical juncture, a new generation is coming of age and demanding a reckoning: Generation Z. Three billion strong, they’re at the center of the most pivotal issues of our time, from reimagining how we live on our changing planet to enacting a new mandate for racial equity. The following decade will bring unparalleled change, with Zs shaping the path ahead.

This generation has a voice—and force—that’s united, unprecedented, and still unacknowledged.

In Generation We, cultural and generational expert AnneMarie Hayek joins forces with thousands of Zs to tell their powerful story—one that impacts all of us. From new ideas on capitalism, politics, and climate change to education, gender, race, and work, AnneMarie explains how Gen Z thinks, what they envision, and why we should be hopeful. Zs are not naïve idealists. They’re hardened realists with a bold vision for how we can transition, re-create, and progress. Generation We is your invitation to see the future they will create as it’s unfolding.

I will separate my thoughts on this book into pros and cons: Pros: -As a person who is in Gen Z, I was impressed by the quantity of figures and references that are specific to Gen Z. I am one of the oldest in Gen Z, and I was familiar with almost every person and event that the author referenced. Brav......more

Goodreads review by Ana on September 03, 2022

This was an engaging read, with a rich look at a topic that interests me greatly in both my personal (mom of 3 GenZers) and professional (climate justice work) lives. AnneMarie Hayek shares well-researched analysis and personal stories, supported with copious amounts of study and poll data. While mu......more

Goodreads review by Peter on February 09, 2023

A good description of the mindset of Gen Z, who make up many of today's high school and university students. I think it's a fair descriptor, though I was frustrated at times by the lack of critical assessment of Gen Z's worldview. This is a generation I love, but - like every other generation - they......more
