It&rsquo;s the latest calamity for a generation that has experienced life-altering disruptions, from 9\/11 to the Great Recession, the decline of American prestige to a housing affordability crisis, global warming to crushing student debt &mdash; and now a pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>And new medical evidence shows the disease strikes young Americans harder than expected, as explained by USC experts.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This [COVID-19] crisis will be one of the formative experiences of most young people&rsquo;s lives,&rdquo; said <a href=\"https:\/\/crcc.usc.edu\/people\/richard-flory\/\" target=\"_blank\">Richard Flory<\/a>, senior director of research and evaluation&nbsp;at the <a href=\"https:\/\/crcc.usc.edu\/\">Center for Religion and Civic Culture<\/a> at USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences. &ldquo;They are watching how their parents, cities, schools and government act. It&rsquo;s putting into high relief the inability of large-scale institutions to address these issues.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Young people see institutional failure to meet the needs of U.S. society, Flory said, and youth support for Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders and climate activist Greta Thunberg underscore the new worldview.<\/p>\n<p>He said young people distrust institutions and rely more on family or a circle of friends. But the hyper-individualism within U.S. society reduces the public sphere in which people can act together.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Failure after failure<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/crcc.usc.edu\/people\/brie-loskota\/\" target=\"_blank\">Brie Loskota<\/a>, executive director of the Center for Religion and Civic Culture, said that many young people are skeptical about the institutions their elders have put in place.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Many young people see the world systems their grandparents or great grandparents built as highly vulnerable and inadequate to the challenges of the world today, so they don&rsquo;t invest in authorities outside their control. It&rsquo;s not something they care much about; they have no reason to trust it because they&rsquo;ve only seen failure after failure. It&rsquo;s not an irrational fear,&rdquo; Loskota said.<\/p>\n<p>She added that social media builds a semblance of community yet can foster relationships lacking depth and durability and make it easy to avoid people one deems uncomfortable.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, creating a curated world skews perceptions of reality, of how other people behave and of what&rsquo;s important for society.
