Boomers and Millennials: Who Will Lead the Future?

Millennials and Boomers: A Generational Divide? A recent TikTok duet highlights the challenges faced by millennials as they navigate a world shaped by the decisions and actions of previous generations. The video features a millennial woman reacting to a boomer woman discussing the Strauss-Howe generational theory, which posits that millennials are a 'hero generation' expected to lead during a crisis. "Millennials are expected to save the world without ever truly inheriting it," the boomer woman states in the video. The millennial creator echoes this sentiment, expressing concern about the older generation's reluctance to relinquish power. The video sparks a conversation about the responsibilities and challenges faced by different generations and the need for intergenerational understanding and collaboration.
