Online Activism

Online Activism

In this E-Soc 211 class the topic of social collaboration and involvement have been discussed often. While I learned this topic it was hard to translate them from theory/concept into applicable structures that I can see in my life. However, then the unit three project ended. This project had us come together as classmates and create a list of task for an online movement. This moment is when I realized that I can see a direct application of ideas. On Facebook I have 774 friends and on twitter I have 468, that gives me a total of roughly 1042 people see my content that I post.

This thought isn’t shared to sound vain or shallow. However, I means that I have a voice. This assignment showed me that I had a voice. The cause I was supposed to indorse was HopePhones if I went through with promoting them on my voice media there is potential for over 1000 people connected to me can encounter this information. I never once thought that I had power like that. I am left with one singular thought, what would happen if there was a cause I was truly passionate about?How could I advance that movement?
