This part 2 of a longer conversation I had with some friends awhile back, so if you haven’t listened to part 1 of my conversation with Generation Z, you’ll probably want to do that first (and you can find it here).

This episode is going to pick up right where that one left off as Lauren, Kristina, Kevin, and Clay sharing their personal reactions to injustices we all witnessed in 2020, as well as even some tangible and practical things they did in response. So if you’re someone who likes to take action and wants to but you’re not quite how or where to start, be sure to listen for that. Whether you’re a teenager or in your 60s, they’re things we can all do.

And that’s the thing, so much of what they said seems relevant and helpful to people of all ages and circumstances. Even if you’re not someone who considers themselves an expert of social media or someone who stresses over how many likes or followers you have, I’m willing to bet the feelings and interactions they describe are still relevant to how you talk or don’t talk to people sometimes, that it might describe how you choose to engage or not engage with people (or posts you see on social media). And I’m sure we can all relate to their thoughts and concerns about cancel culture.

Because regardless of whether it’s on Instagram, Facebook, a text message, a phone call, or even a face-to-face conversation, we all have those feelings of nervousness, hesitation, and the desire to avoid people sometimes rather than having hard or uncomfortable conversations.
