Say what you want about Gen Z, but you can't deny they've mastered the art of storytelling. Emmy Award–winning actress and producer Storm Reid would say the same—she has her camera off during our Zoom call, but I can still tell she's nodding in agreement when we discuss how misunderstood this generation is. "We're underestimated, we're curious, and we care, and we're constantly searching for meaning in the right things, and how to take up space in the right way," she tells me. "We're kind of born into the age of social media, so I think that's where the sentiment comes from that we're just always on our phones [or] always on TikTok. Maybe we're on TikTok, but we're trying to learn something."
