This kind of shift from low-wage manual labour to technology work is going to be increasingly required in the next few years. And there are plenty of stories to tell right here: What is it like when parent and child have very different experiences of the world of work? What if a sibling has gone into the street gangs and resents the other sibling’s change in circumstances? How does it feel to be the first person in your family to get a degree?

Often, what children see, they want to be. What they are most inundated with shapes their worldview, for better or for worse. And, ultimately that’s what seeing powerful images of blackness, or Asian-ness (Ghost in the Shell‘s missed opportunity), or any ethnicity, is all about. A sense of power, of confidence.

This is probably one of the most important pieces I’ve written in quite some time.
