If our language, our programs, our creations are not strongly present in the new media, the young generation of our country will be economically and culturally marginalized.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If readers, young and old, would take even a moment to reflect on our rapidly shifting culture and ideology, I would be happy. Many leaders of the older generation dismiss emerging culture. Those leaders are at risk of becoming a feeble voice-piece without followers. Most of the younger generation is going deaf to the truth.
I'm a professor of media studies as well as humanities, and I'm an evangelist of popular culture, but when there's only media, then there's going to be a slow debasement of language, and that's what I think we're fighting.
When we fail to include diverse, talented faces, reflecting both today and tomorrow's America, we send a poor message to our youth and the world.
A free culture has been our past, but it will only be our future if we change the path we are on right now.
If you don't focus on the future generation, it means you are destroying your country.
I grew up in a physical world, and I speak English. The next generation is growing up in a digital world, and they speak social.

As a matter of fact, a national language which spreads beyond its own confines very quickly loses much of its original richness of content and is in no better case than a constructed language.
Some people accuse the new generation of being ignorant, maybe ignorant for the old generation, but it's a new language.
When there is a huge force pressing down on freedoms, sub-cultures with more creativity and power are likely to form.
