Last week, Resident Scholar at American Enterprise Institute Christina Sommers explained in a tweet throwing shade at the millennial generation that back in their day, her generation and the rest of the baby boomers had things like sex, drugs and rock and roll. But Bowie State graduate and also Founder of HBCU Buzz definitely responded saying he’s a millennial and he wants baby boomers to shut up and stop complaining.
“Dear kids: I’m a Baby Boomer. We are getting old,” wrote Sommers in a Twitter post. “But at least we had sex, drugs and rock & roll. Seems like millennials have moral panics, workshops, and grievance circles. Time to rebel! xx mom.”
In response, Lawal argued that baby boomers like Sommers should learn to use iPhone applications including texting and FaceTime instead of constantly complaining about things it seems to be irrevelant.
“Dear Parents: I’m a Millennial. We are young,” wrote Lawal in response. “But at least we take risks, tech savvy and more politically informed. Seems like baby boomers just complain about texting/facetime, your day job and trump. Time to catch up!”
