IN September 2018 the NY Times launched the NY Times Show US Your Generation photo contest in which teenagers were asked to
Show us a photograph that depicts some aspect of your life or the life of people your age.
What stereotypes about teenagers do the
adults you know seem to hold? How does the media portray people your age
— whether you’re called Gen Z, iGen or anything else?
What
can you show us from your own life, or the lives of those around you,
that might help make that portrait more interesting, nuanced, complete
or real?
Your assignment: Now it is your turn. Choose a photograph (one preferably taken by you), show us and tell us in about 5 minutes why you have chosen that particular picture.
Deadline: Wednesday, 12th Dec.
