Our time begins in the transition from the end of the 20 century to the beginning of the 21 century. One major event that has occurred in our time period would be the inauguration of the first African American president. Date is January 20, 2009. The turning point where more people of color were becoming more part of the society instead of another news incident (still is happening)

Another major event would be the Covid-19 pandemic. The Covid-19 begins in Wuhan, China, December 31. What seemed to be just dozens of cases now has become millions of cases.

Technology has had such an impact in our era. This fast jump from brick phone to Iphone.

When the Iphone came out people were amazed with the high quality touch screen which was in the 2007. Only the wealthy people could have or the sophisticated. But now that we are in the 20019 people just see phones as essential. Technology has become such a big part of our life that we don’t even know it. Smartphones are the flying cars of people in the 1900s. We just see it as an entertainment and communication device. This essentialized technology is making kids spoiled and ignorant. It has its benefits but we are losing morals and our compassion towards one another.

Another big technology piece was the video game device. This would have an impact on kids the most. These devices such as the Playstation, Wii, X box, Nintindo have impacted kids in such a big way in how they talk to one another. Kids nowadays bond over games. Games have become a big part in our society and having it in our living rooms and being able to communicate with others makes things way bigger. Video games have become part of our culture. One may be from the other side of the world but still bond over a game. Thats how big Video games devices have became
