Charted: #Cigarette #Smoking’s Decline in #US. #YoungAdults
https://www.visualcapitalist.com/the-decline-of-cigarette-smoking-in-u-s-young-adults/
Today, fewer than one in five young American adults reported smoking #cigarettes in the past year—with smoking having declined more than 50% from its peak.
While occasional and social smoking among young adults persists, the overall trend from 1988 to 2023 across casual and heavy smoking reveals a remarkable and sustained decline.

After two years and many hours, the first results of the project that made me think that I would actually like to spend the next 5 years doing a PhD on the topic are finally out!

Anti Vietnam war demonstration
Violent and unsettling imagery from American sources was increasingly incorporated into anti-Vietnam War protest material in New Zealand in the late 1960s and early 1970s. In this photograph by Ans Westra, a young man holds a placard featuring the famous 1967 photograph of United States Marine Corporal Michael Wynn, whose helmet reads 'Make War Not Love' - an inversion of the counterculture's slogan. His image was used to promote the 1968 anti-Vietnam War documentary In the Year of the Pig, which screened in New Zealand in 1971.

![The photograph depicts a group of young people, presumably protesters or demonstrators, holding various signs and banners with anti-war messages. The central figure is sitting on the ground, surrounded by others who are standing behind him. He holds up two large posters: one shows an image of United States Marine Corporal Michael Wynn from 1967, whose helmet reads 'Make War Not Love,' which was used in a documentary and became associated with anti-war sentiment during that time period. The other poster is not fully visible but appears to have similar war-related imagery.
The people are casually dressed, suggesting an informal gathering or protest event rather than organized political activity. Some of the individuals wear glasses, while others display tattoos on their arms. Their expressions range from contemplative and focused to slightly smiling, indicating a mix of determination and camaraderie among them.
In the background, additional protesters can be seen with more signs and banners bearing slogans against the Vietnam War, such as "OIN THE ARMY," "THIS IS AN UNJUST WAR" (with an image of a soldier), and another that states "MAKE WAR NOT LOVE." The setting appears to be outdoors at night or in dimly lit conditions. Overall, this photograph captures the spirit of opposition to American involvement in Vietnam during the 1960s-70s through visual symbols and collective action among young people.

![The black-and-white image depicts a group of people in what appears to be a library setting. The focus is on an older woman, seated and leaning against the table with her head resting on her hand; she looks tired or perhaps disinterested. She's dressed casually: white shirt tucked into patterned trousers. Around her are several young individuals, likely students, sitting attentively in chairs facing towards what seems to be a display of books and photographs. The library is filled with bookshelves containing various volumes that suggest an academic environment.
The photograph carries the stamp "Images of New Zealand - College library, Wellington," suggesting it was taken at some point during or before digital photography became commonplace for capturing such moments; hence why it's in black-and-white format. This image could potentially be used to illustrate discussions around education settings from past decades, perhaps emphasizing themes like aging within educational institutions and the evolution of learning spaces over time.
The presence of bookshelves filled with books indicates a well-used library space, likely central for academic activities such as research or study sessions among students in this particular college environment.

IT Fundamentals should be taught to anyone under 30. Why? The new kids/teenagers entering the works force jobs, office jobs etc. Have no idea how to use a computer, let alone a laptop for the most case and they get dismissed from work because they lack BASIC IT SKILLS. #Teen #YoungAdults #Computer #Fundamentals
