Lucky Girl Syndrome and other American lies

Everyone knows the American dream is a lie, but what if TikTok sells it to us? The Lucky Girl Syndrome is Gen Z’s version of America’s propaganda. In this episode, Firdaous talks about how achieving your dream has less to do with believing that you are lucky enough to get them and more with the privileged that made it easy for you to get there. P.S. I apologize for the annoying noise you might hear; I kept playing with my mic, but now I know I shouldn't lmao BECOME GEN Z TALKS' SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER: https://forms.gle/kYaAgGgJTiRVBE1S8 Follow us on Instagram, Twitter & TikTok: @genztalkspod Thank you for listening! -- Host: Firdaous Alaoui Cover illustrator: Helen
