As a result, many of the issues we feel are unrelsolvable, will melt from view. Racism is only one example. Some in our parent's generation couldn't imagine interracial marriage much less an African American President. The same goes with culture wars, abortion, and immigration. They think that we are crazy and in some ways, they are right. Our kids simply don’t view the world in the way that our generation does.
