The tail end of the WWII generation are dying out, and the Sandwich generation right behind them (people born from 1935-1945)...The boomers (from 1946-1964) are really in two groups as far as I am concerned...the before JFK was killed (so those born from 1946-1952) and after JFK (1953-1964).... I've always felt we have the power to change things, BUT we have to know why the "rules" were there in the first place before we change them. Of course, things like Slavery had to be stopped. And it wasn't just in the 1950's that happened. I have some ancestors that we can find on the net, as anti-slavery and were pretty famous Abolitionists as early as the 1820's... All too often in the last 20-25 years, we as a Society have been very hasty dismantling the underpinnings of Society, without understanding of the consequences.
