Silent generation is a Chicago based cultural analysis podcast that surveys the cultural consequences of urban renewal and car-oriented development in the mid-20th century. It explores what was lost between the silent generation and generation Z, pointing to negative outcomes (nihilism, regional homogeneity, and low trust societies) and potential antidotes (subcultures, secular social movements, and individual moral codes). Topics discussed include art, fashion, politics, history and urbanism. Find us on Instagram: silent.generation
