Summary
Mead posited that every generation crafts its unique
'self' based on the roles and interactions of its time. This can lead to
differences in perspectives across generations.
Relevance
For a more inclusive environment, bridging this generational gap is crucial. Understanding that every generation has its 'stage play' can make these interactions more harmonious.
Remember when dial-up internet was a thing? Or wait, was that before your time? See, generational gaps everywhere!
Call to Action
Strike up a conversation with someone from a different generation. Share a trend or technology from your time and learn about one from theirs. It's like time-travel, but with less sci-fi and more life insights!
