Generation Y? Are we the start of new era or the end of something great. All I know is they keep talking about us like we are the second coming of Jesus. But who are they anyway? Telling us how to behave, telling us how to portray, don't they know it's us who makes the important decisions now-a-days. The days of the cookie cutters are over because white fences don't enclose the confines of our happyness, with a Y. The Peter Pan Generation will continue day-dreaming and delaying til the jobs we're offered equal the pay. We'll keep praying for peace like our mothers taught us but we ain't soft, we'll fight for our rights like our forefathers wanted.
Kent Massacre March 5, 1970 Shaped by the students killed in the Kent Massacre, the persistent ass of Rosa Parks, and the rhythmic vocals of Martin Luther. How is it WE gave birth to the L.A. Riots, Jena 6 and the War on Terror. This is our time to shine, do we want to leave the same shadows in history as the boomers before us. Maybe we are the echo boomers they claim. Maybe the only thing poppin' about our culture is in the microwave. Cause like bacteria anything along our land we consumin', eatin', deletin', ruin. Biggest Assholes of all time, humans were a shoe-in from the being.
Tibetan Protestors Seek Refuge From Chinese Control. But not even Renaissance artists could envision the power of Generation who, what, where, Y? As the Omega gets lost in the worlds wide web, browsing through life disconnected from the central unit. We seek a bond beyond the physical within the realms of our social networks. No longer the MTV but instead the Facebook Generation. Not connected by Avatar's Ey'Wa but find comfort in knowing there's 2 billion of us only a thought, I mean, a click away.
Iranian Woman 2010, Still Need a Voice We born not knowing or we born knowing all? Are we growing wiser or are we just growing tall? The questions of a conscious revolution, the questions of a liberated Generation. Our eyes, our ears, our voices, they are the filters that will be recording the history of Change that will one day playback as the most important times of human existence.
Says it all, but we must continue the battle.
