The United States is in the midst of two profound demographic transformations:  the population is enroute to becoming majority non-white, driven by the largest immigration wave in history, at the same time a record share is going gray. These changes have created huge generation gaps. Young and old don’t look alike, think alike, vote alike, or use technology alike. Renowned author and reporter Paul Taylor, a senior fellow at Pew Research Center, explores how these changes are profoundly shaping our country. He’ll share insights on what a changing America means for families, politics, the economy, healthcare, workplaces, and the countries sense of social cohesion.
