i unequivocally would not be who i am without continuously learning from people older AND younger than me
actively seeking out perspectives different from your own is not only informative, good, and healthy; failing to do so upholds the oppressive power dynamic of ageism that brought us here today
perhaps my most cancelable take is that intergenerational movements are good, older people and younger people have a lot to learn from each other, and the idea that people of different ages should never interact for any reason because it’s somehow always nefarious to do so is weird and bad, actually
I am constantly learning about anarchism from people younger than me. People who are not as stuck in their beliefs as I, due to being older and more settled, am. Similarily, people like Cindy Milstein and other elders have so much knowledge due to experience and collected wisdom. Just seems logical?
