Week 2 Discussion: Kony 2012
Question Description
- Intial Response due by Wednesday 11:59pm
- Response to TWO Classmates due by Wednesday 11:59pm
This week we are starting Project 1 which concerns the intersection of social media and activism. As such we are beginning our unit by watching a documentary style viral video Kony 2012. While this video is not a TED talk, we will be treating it as such. Heads up, the video is about 30 minutes long.
After watching the video, please answer the following questions.
Questions:
- What is the speaker’s main argument? Or what is his thesis?
- Name at least 3 specific examples/pieces of evidence the speaker uses to support his argument
- What was the biggest takeaway that you had from this video? What interested you the most?
- How do you think the campaign Kony 2012 supports or deviates from “Small Change” by Gladwell?
