Between the Baby Boomers and Millennials, Generation X was often written off as cynical, sarcastic slackers. However, their impact on culture and society cannot be denied. In her essay collection, Kids in America: Essays on Gen X, Liz Prato delves into the experiences of a generation deeply affected by terrorism, racial inequality, rape culture, and mental illness. Examining her high school and family life, Prato reveals a small, forgotten cohort shaped by iconic films like Sixteen Candles and Beverly Hills, 90210, as well as significant events like the Rodney King riots and the threat of nuclear annihilation. Prato challenges her peers to confront the behaviors that were once acceptable or overlooked and explores how we can reconcile these sins today. Kids in America offers a fresh perspective on a generation often cited but rarely examined beyond the realm of nostalgia.
