- For featured topics, visit the "SPOTLIGHT" web page!
- The newest content (most recently added) can be found under the web page "What's New".
- Click on the web page "Why Our Generation" for more about this web site, its history and influences that have made it possible
Our purpose is to keep the site both relevant and current, particularly in light of today's political environment.
For example, we have to remind ourselves that as American citizens, we are a society of laws and democratic principles, which is being sorely tested by the corrupt practices of our current President.
Further, that we have also have common interests, e.g., Global Warming.
Conceptually, this website can be viewed as a "Virtual Library" of events and people instrumental in the (mostly) positive advancement of human rights, largely from the 1950s until today, starting with the Baby Boomer Generation.
Since this website's start-up in 2012, we have been expanding content to cover every aspect of Human Life, given the huge cultural and technological transformation of mankind, from the 1950s until today.
We have identified roughly 5,000 articles, completing a little over 2,500 that are found on more than 100 web pages (including the 8 main Menu web pages at the top of this and every web page).
Each "virtual book" is an article, or "topic", that can include supporting images, description, even 1-3 videos. (over 4,500 videos developed to-date!)
As a virtual online library, think of each of the seven Main Menus (at the top of this and every other we page) as a library floor, and each web page listed below it as a library aisle consisting of related virtual books (as topics), e.g., Popular Musical Artists web page under the main menu "Best of Media", includes the hard rock group "AC/DC"
But we also cover The Best in Comedy, including TV Situation Comedies!
And, with each topic/book, you will likely find one or more videos to augment the topic's content!
Yes, this website will continue to be a "Work in Progress", given that life will always continue to evolve!
And, let's not forget the fact that both individuals and events of the past and present can also provide timeless lessons for future generations as well!
As an example, we also have to be vigilant of the risk our President poses to American democracy, that, regardless of his comments and actions, all citizens are created equally, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity and religion!
Our Generation USA! will focus on the time period from 1950 until today. Why 1950? Because that decade (and into the 1960s) saw the advent of social reform and entertainment that continues today: from the original black/white TV to the Internet (and beyond)!
And, to appreciate the many achievements that the USA has accomplished since 1950 and that have made us who we are today!
