Check your 1960s pop culture. "Youthquake" is being revived because Millennials are changing the world like the youth did back then.

Edie Sedgwick, etc.

Maybe it's time for everyone to check out George Plimpton's "Edie." "Youthquake" and "youthquaker" references from the 60s are all over it. But jeez, young social media managers, writers and interns: stuff did happen before you got here.

I did an oral presentation in college reviewing "Edie" when it came out. The Reagan Youth stared back at me blankly.

If you "haven't heard of it either" then you are a news organization abysmally out of touch with the English language. The word is decades old, even the title of a pop music album in 1985 by a band called Dead or Alive.
