Distracted Generation

Distracted Generation by Delante Clark exposes how social media quietly shapes Black identity, thought, and community in the digital age. Blending research, cultural analysis, and lived experience, Clark uncovers how algorithms fuel outrage, distort representation, exploit creativity, and drain the focus required for growth and liberation.

This book offers more than critique, it provides a pathway forward. Clark introduces the concept of attention sovereignty, revealing how Black people can reclaim their time, mental space, and cultural power in an environment built to distract.

Clear, urgent, and deeply resonant, Distracted Generation is a call to protect the Black mind and cultivate intention, discipline, and digital freedom.
