The Revolution Generation

The Revolution Generation: How Millennials Can Save America and the World is one of the only documentaries I have seen that has really captivated me and intrigued my interest in the environmental issues the world is facing today. Directed by Josh and Rebecca Tickell who explores the limitless world-changing potential of history's largest youth generation: millennials. Michelle Rodriguez's narration propels the film forward in a way that is as relatable as it is truthful. Aside from providing various amounts of educational info in this film, the sources were also used to relay the message to the next generation. You will particularly enjoy this film if you are interested in social, racial, or economic issues. It takes a deep look at all these issues and proposes a radically new approach to solving each. In addition to examining and addressing these trends, the documentary explores the rise in activism and calls for change within social, governmental, and environmental issues. With interviews with politicians and celebrity activists such as Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Corbin Bleu, and Shailene Woodley, The Revolution Generation gives the audience an inside look at the motivations and ideologies that generate such rising popularity of activist causes, all looking to better the world for future generations, while inspiring and educating on the necessity and need for effective protest and political action.

A paramount documentary, covering a multitude of current events all circling one phenomena: the adulthood of the millennial. Josh and Rebecca Tickell's new documentary, The Revolution Generation: How Millennials Can Save America and the World, addresses the negative connotations of upcoming younger generations and uses history and evidence to offer concise, lucid rebuttals. It effectively proves how all of the traits allocated to millennials that have been deemed unworthy, are the key to the progression of the planet. A wide range of topics including social justice, student debt, climate control, and more amalgamate to form a cohesive story of a generation fighting with all that they have to create a world better than the one they grew up in. Metaphorical sound design brings to life the emotions of a generation; run and gun footage symbolizes the grit and hard work millennials are ready to put in; and top-tiered structuring brings together an explicit, successful argument. The Revolution Generation becomes one more well-spoken leader in the ongoing fight for human and earthly rights.

The Revolution Generation: How Millennials Can Save America and the World, like the youth movements they depict, is unapologetic, bombastic, and impactful. Directors Josh and Rebecca Tickell of Kiss the Ground once again capture the urgency of our societal situation in another call to action, a loud siren demanding attention towards this world's grave injustices and the young people fighting against them. The extended adolescence of millennials has cultivated their negative stereotype of being immature and inactive - which the Tickells prove cannot be further from the truth. Their responses to these claims are explicated with cogent references to historical trends and sociological tendencies. They conclude that millennials react to their crumbling world in the most natural way imaginable. The youth's reaction could even be called extraordinary as they take the initiative to fight for racial, economic, and gender equality under the global threat of climate change. The commanding voice of the people is embodied by Michelle Rodriguez's narration and echoed by the many prominent interviewees such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Corbin Bleu, and Shailene Woodley. By the end of the film, all the members of this great chant are working together to motivate the young viewership to join them in their organizations to work towards a better future.

Through a lens of history's cyclical nature, it highlights the future's dependence on our youth and promotes their incredible potential to effect change through contemporary avenues. This stance is effectively reinforced through sobering and fascinating testimonies from activists Corbin Bleu and Shailene Woodley, who are repurposing their influence to inspire tremendous progress. Whether it is mental health advocacy, civil rights, or environmental conservation, The Revolution Generation makes it crystal clear that everyone has a voice and the ability to fight for what they believe in - making it one of the most important films of its class.
