In all my years of writing and reporting, I’ve never been exposed to the List of Generations Chart.
You probably know some of the chart names, Greatest Generation, Baby Boomers, Generation X, Generation Y and Generation Z.
The Greatest Generation has two parts: G.I. 1901-1924 – Experienced WWII in adulthood. And the Silent Generation – 1925-1945. Experienced WWII in childhood and civil rights movement.
Baby Boomers – Boom Generation Hippie – 1946-1964 – Space exploration, first modern “counterculture”
Baby Boomers – Baby Busters – 1965 1980 – Experienced Vietnam War and Cold War.
Generation X -MTV/Generation Boomerang Generation – 1975-1985. Rise of mass media and end of cold war
Generation Y – Echo Boom – 1978-1990 – Rise of the information age, internet, war on terror, Iraq War, rising gas and food prices.
