Generation Next and Generation Next 2.0

Senior Newshour correspondent, Judy Woodruff crisscrosses the country for a portrait of the unique generation of 16-25 year olds coming of age in America. Forty-two million strong, they were born after the Cold War, weaned on technology, came of age rocked by 9/11, and now face a future marked by complex global challenges.

This two-part documentary explores the hopes, beliefs, and aspirations of Generation Next, as well as the impact they will have on virtually every aspect of American life as they take the reigns of political, business, and societal leadership.
