(84,711 posts)It's so encouraging. There are Older (even pre-boomers) and the Young in those photos.
I agree with you about the generations working together. The Older have more time and knowledge of the past to contribute and the younger (as you say) have the technological skills and social networking abilities to get the message out.
Those in the middle age groups are necessarily focused on their families and or their jobs and have less time to devote.
Unlike the 60's where it was mostly youth and the parents couldn't understand what the kids were so upset about...the older generation today knows exactly why they need to be out in the streets or working in whatever way they can to help organize. So this is a great fusion that might just achieve what was hoped because of the numbers...and the challenges out there to all of us with this Corporatocracy/Plutocracy/Oligarchy...(whatever one thinks we are into).
For that we have to be hopeful...
