The Medium is the Message

The Medium is the Message

     The democratization of power in the age of social media. Individuals or small groups of people have become more empowered because of the current media landscape. Social and political movements can spread like never before because of a interconnected global community. People who couldn't have their voices heard before now can. Social barriers are crumbling. Globalization is making the world a smaller and more interconnected place. Social media is the platform where no matter a persons social or economic status they can organize and share their beliefs with the rest of the world. For better or for worse.
