    Generation Y. Kids born sometime between the early 80s to around the mid 90s to the year 2000. They're the generation directly after Gen Xers. They come of age in the 21st century.

    I like how they lead with the millennial figure, as the overall figure isn't that much better when you exclude them as a group.
    Hardly headlining, that would be , 'more than forty percent of Americans have no clue about one of the biggest genocides in human history'.
    Granted even less would know about the larger genocides we don't tend to talk about...

    Really startling stat. I once dated a girl who was from the same city as me and had no clue who Anne Frank was. It floored me... we were taken to a Holocaust exhibit and heard some very real speeches from survivors in school. I guess not every school had the same opportunity. Too bad... so many important lessons to be learned and not forgotten from the Holocaust.
