#Connected

Social media sites provide highly interactive platforms for individuals and communities to co-create, share, and modify user-developed content. The growing use of Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, Tumblr, Yik Yak, and countless other sites on the web offers many new ways to connect and interact electronically. The web has given voice and power to individuals and communities, particularly the traditionally oppressed or underrepresented, and it has created new opportunities for self expression through writing, music and art. However, popular culture and social media’s immediacy of sending and receiving messages in real time has also raised issues regarding content veracity/reliability; racist and sexist rants; as well as bullying and personal attacks. What is the future role of social media in our communication and interaction with each other and how can we use this new technology to advance issues about equity and diversity? Join us for an engaging and timely discussion.
