Baby Boomers: An Entire Generation Explained in 10 Minutes

Who are the Baby Boomers, and what actually shaped their generation? Born between 1946 and 1964, Baby Boomers grew up in an America almost unrecognizable today. They experienced the postwar boom, suburban expansion, Cold War anxiety, the Civil Rights era, Vietnam, the Space Race and enormous cultural change. They also experienced something remarkable on a personal level. Many went from rotary phones, paper maps, three television channels and an almost completely analog childhood to computers, smartphones, GPS, streaming and artificial intelligence. And now, the generation that spent most of its life being America's enormous young, working and middle-aged generation is becoming the older generation. In this Professor Blackwood documentary, we're explaining the Baby Boomer generation in just 10 minutes — the childhood, history, humor, technology, contradictions and experiences that shaped millions of lives. Because Baby Boomers aren't simply a stereotype. They're a living bridge between two very different versions of everyday life. 📘 THE NEXT CHAPTER BLUEPRINT If you'd like to support Professor Blackwood, check out The Next Chapter Blueprint in the description.
