Social Media Connections

Gen Z is using social media as a powerful tool for education and awareness, often turning platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter) into spaces for activism, storytelling, and learning. Unlike previous generations, Gen Z doesn’t just consume content — they create it to inform, challenge, and inspire others. Whether it’s sharing infographics, personal stories, or breaking down complex topics into short videos, this generation is reshaping how people engage with social justice, history, and current events. Below are some links to social media posts we thought were especially relevant to our class, showing how Gen Z uses these platforms to make education more accessible and engaging.
