Define Generation Z Meaning

Generation Z
Also known as generation 9/11 because generation z starts with everyone born between 2001-2021. It's just in it's infancy right as I type this, but this generation will face many things including: the aftermath of the war in Iraq, the effects of the desicions made TODAY about politics, and will be on the edge of the next predicted revolution.

Generation Z will be the combined product of generation X and Y. They'll need a miracle to survive.

Generation Z
A cohort of a group of people born form Generation X. The demographic boom of Generation Y took place between 1980-1994. Therefore anyone born in 1994 or after, the most common ending date being 2010, is a member of Generation Z. They do not recall much of the events of the 9/11 attacks and grew up in the technology boom of the late 90's and early 2000's. Unlike Generation Y, they did not grow up recalling the Cold War era and were born in the post years after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Generation Z
The generation immediately following Generation Y/Millennials. Typically means people born very close to the start of the 20th century (late 90's or early 2000's), but some official statistics set the start year as early as 1993 or as late as 2006.

Generation Z
Today’s teenagers and young adults, ranging in age from about 10-22. Whatever source you look up says something different, though.

We grew up in a post 9/11 world, were kids when the economy crashed, saw the first black man elected president and the first orange man elected president. Social media and iPhones were and are part of growing up for us.

Although the world is statistically getting better, we’ve never felt like we live in a peaceful world. As kids, we watched the war in Iraq and Afghanistan on TV. We have seen the rise of ISIS, school shootings, and huge natural disasters due to climate change. We have been inundated with bad news and fake news due to growing up with the internet. Adults told us growing up that we were entitled narcissists and our phones that they invented were destroying our social skills.

We grew up on youtube, twitter and instagram, making friends with people halfway across the world since we were young. We are the first truly global generation. Our claim to fame is our memes.

We have been handed a world that is more complex and faster changing than any other time in history. Many see it as broken. We saw the world lose it’s footing around 2016 when Trump became president, Brexit passed, and Harambe died. Many of us question whether or not it’s ethical to have kids, because we wonder if they’ll be around to see the end of the world. We are ridden with depression and anxiety and worry for the future. We are doing the best we can.

They will help shape the fragile 21st century (Though not pioneer them like Gen Y) into a new understanding and approach of the global society.
