FIGHT: How Gen Z Is Channeling Their Fear and Passion to Save America

In his book FIGHT, John Della Volpe explores Generation Z, the issues that matter most to them, and how they will shape the future.

John looks at how a generation that’s been faced with an onslaught of unprecedented events – September 11, the war on terror, Hurricane Katrina, the 2008 financial crisis, the housing crisis, the opioid epidemic, mass school shootings, climate change, racial injustice, the whiplash between the election of the first Black president and Donald Trump, and COVID-19 – to name a few. Instead, they have become more politically engaged, aiming to disrupt the status quo.

In FIGHT, Della Volpe shows the largest forces shaping Zoomers’ lives, the issues they care most about, and how they are―despite older Americans’ efforts to label Gen Z as overly sensitive, lazy, and entitled―rising to the unprecedented challenges of their time to take control of their country and our future.
