Gen Z is over it. The youngest generation of adults is inheriting a climate crisis, the ongoing fallout from a global pandemic, a polarized political landscape, and a tenuous economic reality.  And many Gen Z members, a generation <a href="https://www.prri.org/research/generation-zs-views-on-generational-change-and-the-challenges-and-opportunities-ahead-a-political-and-cultural-glimpse-into-americas-future/">more likely</a> to identify as progressive than conservative, are ready for something to give.Enter: <a href="https://www.genzforchange.org/about">Gen Z for Change</a> — a youth-led non-profit that brands itself as, "the place where the creator economy and progressive politics intersect on social media." The group leverages a hundreds-deep network of social media creators to spread calls to action over <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@genzforchange?lang=en">TikTok</a>. They've also pulled on the programming expertise within their team to develop a caché of semi-automatic tools that take the guesswork out of engaging with their political agenda.Their <a href="https://www.instagram.com/genzforchange/p/C35hWV1rxEX/?img_index=3">latest tool</a>, "Ceasefire Now!!" takes these efforts one step further — resulting in, by Gen Z for Change's count, two million emails calling for a ceasefire in Gaza hitting the inboxes of elected representatives in Washington every day.Share your thoughts on WIRED Politics Lab.
