Millennial culture has officially achieved the history books.
A history teacher recently changed her sixth class classroom to a Museum for Millennial Parapernalia with the help of the parents of her gen Alpha students. Based on the comments about the Ticktok video of the teacher, Millennials are not sure if they should be excited or shocked.
Malinda Nichols (@Hipsterhistorywithmrsn) Post the video earlier this month and emphasized “historical artifacts from the 1990s” for the benefit of its students. Flip phones, Nintendos and disposable cameras. Boyz II Men and Beanie Babies also appeared. “The collection here is easily worth 10 dollars,” she joked. “But the nostalgic value is really priceless.”
In a second videoWith almost 800,000 views on Tiktok, she showed the students’ reactions to the ‘Museum of the Millennial’, as she called it. Students played Pogs, played a popular playground game with flat circular cardboard milk caps, and tried to find out how buttons worked at an old-school Nokia.
The parents also appeared a surprising one for a “history lesson” directly from the mouth of the horse. Students’ questions include: “How did you make plans with your friends before texting?” And “Which commercials or jingles do you remember when you were younger?” Finally, students had to take their own AOL screen names to complete the full millennial experience.
“I made the ‘Museum of the Millennial’ lessons for my students from my sixth grade to show them that history is not only found in dusty school books – it is alive, personal and made every day,” Nichols told Fast Company. “By inviting parents to share artifacts from their youth in the 80s and 90s, first -hand students saw how the people who raised them, including myself – I am a proud millennial and parent of a sixth class – Pionier helped the digital age, even if we did not live it, because it just lived our lives for us at our lives.”
For a much malignant generation (those who were born about between 1981 and 1996), it was a welcome change to see that their culture finally received the recognition it deserves. Millennials are forced to listen too long while older generations punished them for too high spending on avocado tosing, before they were sandwiched by a younger generation that roasted for their unironic love for Harry Potter and preference for hamburgers.
The video of Nichols also brought the horrible awareness for millennials that their youth is now the subject of history lessons. “Historical artifacts?” They wrote. “I feel attacked.”
