Conversations about current politics and social issues by Gen Z for Gen Z. We are a team of several college students, who are no experts by any means but are looking to continue the conversation about these problems even when they are not in the mainstream media anymore.
Today, we discuss the toxicity of "Cancel Culture" as well as the need for it. We talk about celebrities such as Timothee Chalamet, Eiza Gonzalez, Shane Dawson, Ariana Grande, Addison Rae, and Woody Allen while bringing up the topics of forgiveness and pretty privilege.

Is It Okay To Be Apolitical?
In the very first episode of Gen Z Conversations, we discuss why being apolitical can be both harmful and impractical. We explore this through the scope of the Black Lives Matter movement as well as day-to-day problems that are unknowingly influenced by politics. We also provide our take on privilege and class differences regarding political involvement.
