Trauma In The Feed
Manage episode 516830974 series 3698849
Generation Z is the first generation to have grown up doing school shooting drills since kindergarten and the first generation to live through having gun violence be the leading cause of death in America. The trauma doesn't end when the lockdown drills are over; it continues online through the digital world we are all so attached to.
In this first episode, your host Sunny Day will explore how social media turned school shootings into a real-time, shareable crisis, creating a whole new digital archive of shared trauma. I'll break down the data behind the trauma and explain why 75% of Gen Z deals with stress from school shootings and why growing up doing those drills has had a serious impact on all of us.
This episode takes an in-depth, personal look at how our country's most devastating crisis has been amplified, altered, and forever documented through our digital world.
