One constant we found with everyone we spoke to abt getting help from family or giving help to family was SHAME. People don’t like to talk about money, ESPECIALLY about debt. And people don’t like to talk about privilege, and how smoothly it travels from generation to generation

But for many millennials, especially immigrants, ppl from low-income backgrounds, first-gen college students, and people of color — they send money home! We have that perspective in this ep too, with help from @aminatou and @hannah_seligson

Data suggests adult millennials, more than previous generations at the same age, rely on their parents to pay the bills. Up to a quarter of working millennials having parents paying at least ONE of their monthly bills.

Sometimes at @NPRItsBeenAMin we do call-in episodes. In this one, we talk w/millennials who accept help from parents to make ends meet, as well as some who do the opposite: send money back home.

I want our newsrooms and our audiences to get comfortable being uncomfortable a bit more, and be open to hearing voices that aren't their own. Voices they don't get to control. (Also, stop emailing me talking about how I need to stop saying "like" so much. PLEASE.)

The "diversity, BUT" critique of my colleague's voice isn't too much better than saying, "Sure, I'm all for gay rights, as long as they don't, like, kiss in public." Or, "Sure, all about women in the workplace, but I should never have to see them breastfeed."

True representation - true diversity - is inherently uncomfortable. It's supposed to be. Feeling and experiencing things you haven't before isn't supposed to always make you feel 100 percent GOOD. ANd it isn't always supposed to sound and feel the way YOU want it to feel.

Very well-meaning people have convinced themselves that THEY get to set the parameters of representation for groups they don't even really know at all. Regions they don't even really know at all. People they don't even really know at all.

You want a new paint job on the car when what the car really needs is an entire engine overhaul.

If you only want to hear Black people that sound just like the white voices you've heard before, or you only want to see coverage of a place like Africa (which is hundreds, thousands of DIFF'T places) that feels like what we've heard before, you don't really want diversity.
