Illustration by Cole Ross The News House Published May 21, 2024

The 2024 Presidential Election is today, November 5th. There will be 41 million voters representing Gen Z who will be eligible to vote in this consequential and generational election. In this special edition of  “A Public Affair” I sat down with an up and coming Gen Zer, Malcolm Bomba to discuss this year’s election and how significant Gen Z’s role will be in the outcome.

He also shares his extraordinary journey in pursuing and achieving his Bachelor of Arts Degree In Music from the prestigious Oberlin College and Conservatory in May 2024 during the pandemic and how he and his fellow Gen Z classmates survived isolation and mental health challenges while completing their higher education. He also provides insight on his generation being born into the digital age and their impact and influence on social media.

Malcom, is a 23 year old Denver Native and Overland High School Graduate. He’s a Daniels Scholarship Fund Recipient for his academic and musical excellence. He has interned for PBS as a Andrew Patner Fellow. He currently lives in Chicago, IL and is working for the Harris/Walz Campaign as a Digital Production Intern.
