English term or phrase: Join the generations of attitudes
Context: an educational brochure for exhibit viewers. This exhibit has Chicano portrays that show a lot of the symbols and imagery used by this culture (their clothing, low-riders, tattoos, gothic letters, the Virgin of Guadalupe, etc.). I'm not coming up with a good way to translate this. I have a feeling this brochure is for a young audience because of the other questions they ask (i.e.: think of what the eyes of the subject are trying to tell you). I have copied below all of the context I have. Thanks to all in advance.


Join the Generations of Attitudes
Every generation and its members can have an attitude, and there is room on the platform for others. Step up and create your own version. Then have someone capture it on camera.

Cada generación y sus miembros pueden tener una actitud, un estilo, su propia onda [su propia estética], y hay espacio en el estrado para los demás [y las demás ondas]. Da un paso adelante, súbete [sube a este estrado], y crea tu propia versión [de ese estilo/esa actitud]. Entonces, haz que alguien lo capture con una cámara.

Suerte.

Muchas gracias por toda tu ayuda John. Opté por "Súmate a las generaciones con estilo propio", ya que hace referencia a los chicanos en particular, al igual que otras generaciones (como la de la década del 60) que ha quedado en la historia con una identidad colectiva propia.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hi John. Your suggestion is excellent, as usual. The only thing that needs tweaking is the "entra", since the visitors won't be going inside any space, but rather stepping up on a platform to have their picture taken and strike a pose that reveals their own personality. Perhaps for the title I could omit "entra" and leave it as "forma parte de..."
