A new India has taken to the streets. And more are coming to take on the establishment. The older generation is worriedβ€”and more so because Gen Alpha has caught on and is following the lead of Gen Z. Raised with a smartphone in one hand and a world of information in the other, Gen Z has little patience for what they perceive are obsolete rituals of deference to elders who don’t get them.

This generation celebrates solidarity and speaks its own visual language. Spiderman and Superman mingle with Pride activists dressed in bright colours at protest sites, turning dissent into something that is as much about community and expression as it is about politics.
