In addition to being the most racially and ethnically diverse generation in our nation’s his-tory, Gen Z adults also identify as LGBTQ at much higher rates than older Americans. Like millen-nials, Gen Zers are also less likely than older generations to affiliate with an established religion. This report considers what sets members of Generation Z apart from older generations in termsof their political and cultural values, their faith in communities and political institutions, and theirviews on religion and the importance of diversity and inclusion in the nation’s democracy. Thereport is based on both the results of a national survey of all Americans, which includes over-samples of Generation Z—both Gen Z adults (ages 18–25) and Gen Z teens (13–17)—and on ananalysis of ten virtual focus groups that included a wide cross section of Gen Z adults from acrossthe United States. Gen Z adults trend slightly less Republican than older Americans. More than half of Gen Zteens do not identify with a major party, but most share their parents’ party affiliation. •Gen Z adults (21%) are less likely than all generational groups except millennials (21%) toidentify as Republican. Meanwhile, 36% of Gen Z adults identify as Democrats, and this rate issimilar to other generations, with the exception of Gen Xers, who are less Democratic (31%).•More than half of Gen Z teens (51%) do not identify with either major political party, comparedwith 43% of Gen Z adults. Most Gen Z teens share the same partisan identity as their parents. Gen Z adults are more liberal than older Americans. Gen Z teens are more moderate. •With the exception of millennials (24%), Gen Z adults (28%) are notably less likely than othergenerational cohorts to identify as conservative. And Gen Z adults (43%) identify as liberal ata higher rate than other generations. A plurality of Gen Z teens (44%) identify as moderate.•While Gen Z women are substantially more liberal than Gen Z men (47% vs. 38%), that gen-der gap is smaller among Gen Z teens, with 27% of teen girls and 21% of teen boys identify-ing as liberal. By contrast, white teens are more likely to identify as conservative (38%) thannon-white teens (21%). Gen Z is more religiously diverse than older generations. Gen Z teens mirror their parents’religious affiliation. Gen Z teens are more likely than Gen Z adults to attend church or findreligion important. •Gen Z adults are notably less likely to identify as white Christians and more likely to identifyas religiously unaffiliated than older generations, with the exception of millennials.•More than eight in ten white Christian Gen Z teens (83%) and Christian Gen Z teens of color(85%) report belonging to the same religion as their parents, compared with 68% o
