Social Media - The realm of political, race and gender topics

During this week's module, I have never tried or even looked at tumblr. I was aware of it but never gave it a second thought. After reading the various materials related to this module, I found it very interesting and insightful. Looking at trying to do the five different post formats, I was able to add the tumble extensions which was helpful. I would right click and there it was. Click on it and fill out the information and bam, off it goes to my account.

I found it interesting how our political, gender and race play a huge part in our social media world. They are intertwined and always seem to be an integral part of our everyday lives.

Why does social media always seem to use these three important and controversial topics? Maybe not at the sametime but almost always it has one of these three topics associated with it. Is it the idea of reaching more people and allowing them to have a voice now than the way it was before when all we had was a tv and could just watch.

Social media can be very helpful to educate us but also to manipulate and create opinions without all the facts. As previously understood, we have all become journalists to some degree. If we are going to use political, race or gender within any of our post on any social media platform, let us use the tools that can help reach so many and create an understanding of what is fact or fiction.

Let me know your thoughts! I Always welcome a different perspective!

CANANDAIGUA, NY — The word “skenoh” can be translated to either health or peace.

And now, it’s the new name of what was formerly known as Squaw Island, a small park in New York which is just off the City Pier on Canandaigua Lake.

What happens when nature takes over our cemeteries.  There are not enough volunteers to help the upkeep of cemeteries.   Eventually someone will be left to try and put the pieces back together!

New photobook cover - This book provides insight into a soldier's life while serving.  To be able to read about what they miss more and what they are dealing with.   I wanted to showcase a book to bring a different perspective to soldiers and understand that they miss the little things in life while away from the loved ones they miss the most.
