Ron Brownstein: Americans are just growing accustomed to the impact of the massive millennial generation as consumers, workers and voters. But now the crusade for gun control led by survivors of the Parkland, Florida, school shooting is heralding the arrival of the younger generation rising behind them. And in their racial diversity, attitudes toward religion and culture, their digital fluency and their political priorities, this emerging generation usually called the post-millennials, sometimes labeled Generation Z might shake American life even more profoundly than the millennials.
For Republicans who have nervously watched polls showing an enormous backlash against President Donald Trumps insular nationalism among the millennials, this younger generation could represent an even greater threat.

Considering the world that we have left for them, that may be a most appropriate designation.
