2 billion under 20 : how millennials are breaking down age barriers and changing the world / by Kleinert, Jared.(CARDINAL)410512; Ferreira, Stacey.(CARDINAL)410513;
"Of the roughly 6.97 billion people on Earth today, approximately 2 billion of them are under 20 years old. Millennials have a lot of reputations these days, but powerful, smart, and affective are not usually the adjectives used to describe them. Jared Kleinert and Stacey Ferreira want to change that and empower these young people to follow their dreams, set goals, and achieve success. Both young successful entrepreneurs themselves, they believe in breaking down age barriers to make a difference. Jared, best-known as the Founder and CEO of Synergist, and Stacey, best-known as the Co-Founder of MySocialCloud.com met in 2012 at the Under 20 Thiel Fellowship Summit. After speaking with their equally impressive peers, they realized that these 2 billion young voices have inspiring stories to share with the world and they wanted to bring them to life through 2 Billion Under 20. Jared and Stacey also decided to start an online community, www.2BillionUnder20.com where young people could help each other grow and develop their dreams into reality. They've curated an anthology of amazing stories from their peers. Contributors like Paige McKenzie who started her own YouTube channel at the age of 16 that now has more than 55 million views and Jack Andraka who created an early detection Pancreatic cancer test at age 14 have joined forces to show the world that age is just a number"--

La edad de tiza / by Ceballos Viro, Alvaro,author.;
"Álvaro ha cumplido ya los treinta cuando un reves laboral lo devuelve a la casa familiar: allí sigue viviendo su madre y permanecen tambien, a modo de fantasmas, las promesas de prosperidad de su adolescencia. Sin mucho más que hacer, se propone desentrañar un viejo misterio que empezó cuando el tenía catorce años: la desaparición de una cinta de vídeo sobre educación sexual que les pusieron en clase y que dio pie a otros acontecimientos igualmente inexplicables. Entre recuerdos dudosos, volvemos con Álvaro al año 1991, a un colegio masculino y concertado en el que se habla de la España del futuro, donde las chicas están a años luz de distancia, los padres y los hijos son incapaces de comunicarse, y madurar significa dejar de hacer preguntas. La Edad de Tiza es una gran novela de crecimiento disfrazada de novela de intriga: el relato de «la generación más preparada de la historia», de las expectativas y las promesas que vivieron a fondo losboomers y se desvanecieron para los millenials"--Page 4 of cover.

Ok Boomer, Let's Talk: how my generation got left behind / by Filipovic, Jill.(CARDINAL)344726;
In Ok Boomer, Let's Talk, journalist (and Millennial) Jill Filipovic tells the definitive story of her generation-and it's no joke. Talking to gig workers, economists, policy makers, and dozens of struggling Millennials drowning in debt on a planet quite literally in flames, Filipovic paints a shocking and nuanced portrait of a generation being left behind: -Millennials are the most educated generation in American history-and also the most broke. -Millennials hold just 3 percent of American wealth. When they were the same age, Boomers held 21 percent. -The average older Millennial has $15,000 in student loan debt. The average Boomer at the same age? Just $2,300 in today's dollars. -Millennials are paying almost 40 percent more for their first homes than Boomers did. -American families spend twice as much on healthcare now than they did when Boomers were young parents. Filipovic shows that Millennials are not the avocado-toast-eating snowflakes of Boomer outrage fantasies. But they are the first American generation that will do worse than their parents. ٢OK, Boomer٣ isn't just a sarcastic dismissal-it's a recognition that Millennials are in crisis, and that Boomer voters, bankers, and policy makers are responsible. Filipovic goes beyond the meme, upending dated assumptions with revelatory data and revealing portraits of young people delaying adulthood to pay down debt, obsessed with ٢wellness٣ because they can't afford real healthcare, and struggling to #hustle in the precarious gig economy....AMAZON.
