The rise of a new era is upon us, and with it, the rise of a generation as unique to history as the digital age it's a part of. This week on The Future STIR, Mary Meehan talks about the future for "Gen WE" and the events that are shaping this rising group of diverse individuals.

"Of course we live in a diverse society." The rise of what Meehan calls "Gen WE" is fostering in a new age of inherent diversity and individuality; these trends in inclusiveness are deeply rooted in this generation's place in history, that which precedes as well as follows from this generational shift. The input of a massive spike in universality and individuality has implications from politics to personal consumption, all of which affect the future in the hands of Generation "WE."
