millennial moment

In today’s culture, to be called a millennial is almost an insult — as the word has become so equated with a stereotypically “lazy,” “entitled,” “annoying” generation. There are so few genuine representations of millennials in media and so few (if any) places where millennials can go for inspiration, information, and advice on how to overcome the millennial stereotype. That’s why this website is intended to be a haven for millennials to spend time exploring some of the ways that their generation has acted positively and has been represented positively in pop culture. Millennials need to engage with media content that allows them to connect with/relate to other millennials’ experiences and uplifts them, instead of content that berates them or mocks a “broken” generation.

This all matters because I'm fed up with the generalizations that are placed on our generation that have hindered us from getting certain opportunities/jobs or believing in our fullest potentials. When millennials are consistently told, time after time, that they are collectively a “lazy,” “privileged,” “good for nothing” generation, the words can sink deep and begin affecting what goals millennials strive to achieve. It's time we reveal to the broader world that millennials are a savvy, smart, unconventionally successful generation with confidence and passion in the way that they speak and present themselves.
