Social media is the base for anyone to understand and assure their viewpoint on any movement.

With the opportunity to get different perspectives, receive and send different opportunities to make a change, or just to read, it is a great way to start to get your voice out there.

With that, you will be inspired to take further action in other places.

Social Media and Sharing Important Events

# data[].attributes.body
The news has most definitely not been on the side of the protestors, and has shown false information and lies about what is happening.

Showing clips of cops kneeling with the protestors, but what they don't show is after the news crew leaves, they immediately start beating and tear gassing the crowd.

Or when the media paid an actress to pretend to be George Floyd's fiancé so she would tell them to stop rioting, when George's real girlfriend was mourning at his memorial.

People have also been using this for specific cases such as spying on police when they prepare for attacking rioters, cops looting the stores rather than protestors, and injuries people have sustained from police brutality.

One particular case that I saw was someone who posted a picture of a cop who they said broke their wrist, and refused their name and badge number, so they couldn't take legal action. They posted the picture and asked the internet who the cop was, and replies were flooded with links to the cop's social media.

This really shows what power this social media has given the civilians.

Social media and and online activity has helped impact awareness and also helps educate people who are uneducated about the subject.

People can post petitions, information, news articles, opinions and facts and reports.

This is essential because an educated society is much more likely to make a change rather than an uneducated society.

In the social medias or internet some people are trying to fight or say bad words to the police. I know how they angry and sad about the Black person died because of police. Also, he said "I can't breath" many time to the police but they didn't show any changes. I think the protest must be in peaceful and safe. I don't want to see the army and normal people make fight or war. So, do not use the anonymous in social media to say bad words just use for RIP.

Social media platforms such as instagram, twitter and facebook allow the sharing of information through both the mediums of text, images and videos.

This widespread sharing information allows a group of people with the same goal in mind to share information with each other and raise awareness about certain topics.

The use of text is mostly there to describe a situation or event. An image is the least useful as the viewer must interpret what is occurring in the image. Lastly a video is one of the most useful mediums as it can truly convey the atmosphere and occurrences of a situation through the sue of both audio and visual evidence.

People have been posting links on their social media to prewritten emails and all the user has to do is write their name and where they live in the blank spaces and then press send.

These emails are usually sent to multiple people in the government and allows for many people to easily send them and show the people in power that they want change and they want it now.

The internet has given people a lot of power, and the computer doesn't discriminate, allowing anyone and everyone to fight back. One way people have fought back is through Social Media, raising awareness to the problem and being able to show things previously not made public, such as people recording the protests or police brutality and anything else of that sort. Another, more 'violent' way people have fought back is through...hacking. Hacker Group Anonymous (or anon for short) has recently hacked into the data base of Minneapolis police, threatening to "release the many crimes of the police." This, of course, is not exactly legal, but neither is the police brutality many people are forced to comply with.

"Every action has an equal and opposite reaction" - Isaac Newton

Police Brutality called for hacking and exposure.
Police Brutality also called for protests and social media awareness.

As we all know, Twitter is a social media platform known for being a site where people can freely express their thoughts and opinions, and has a reputation of being largely controversial. We all have the freedom of speech and the right to our own opinions, however, it can influence the younger generation in both positive and negative ways. Being a young person, you can be easily influenced by social media as it has become such a detrimental thing in todays society. Unfortunately, some peoples opinions that they choose to put out on the app can hurt others both mentally and physically and can start some very large disputes. So, should it be okay to voice an opinion, if it can hurt others?

One of the new technological inventions of the past decade is social media, platforms such as Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok keep improving and being developed.

These platforms allow people to share things they're passionate about, videos, pictures and to stay in touch. Social media has allowed evidence of murders of innocent black people to go viral and come to people's attention, instead of being neglected.

Social media has also helped with the organization of protests, which have kept people up to date and informed.

And the use of the hashtag #blacklivesmatter has allowed all kinds of people to share their opinions and knowledge with everyone, and this has brought awareness to the movement.

Through the use of online platforms people have the ability to donate to different black lives matter organizations and funds such as campaign zero.

As time progresses so do we, as humans we are always trying to find new ways to innovate.  Be more concise. Over the last 20 years The media has developed tremendously.  One of these things that have developed, some would say the most, is called social media.

Social media is a way of communicating with people all over the world.  It allows you to share your Ideas.

Lately there has been a lot more usage over the death of black American George Floyd.  People have been protesting over the past four day and it sure has moved a lot of people.

A new thing that came out along with technology were the developers and creators of websites, games, and accounts. A lot of progress has been made since the initial release of technology. Most of the people who are well known and successful are the people who have been on the internet for a while. This shows with people such as PewDiePie who is a popular YouTuber with over 100 million subscribers. People like him have gained experience to see the world the way it should. Developers also attempt to make an impact in their own ways. Whether it be changing a small easter egg in a game, or updating an entire website for that purpose. For example: An entire website was dedicated to the BlackLivesMatter movement (blacklivesmatter.com). This shows that people who are professional or trained developers, use their time and skill to better humanity in whatever ways they can. Some creators have dedicated fans who will follow them to the ends of the earth. Those creators usually take advantage of them whether it being for good or for bad. Creators and developers have a lot more power and influence than most people think. I hope that people don't take them for granted and the creators use their influence for good instead of for bad.

Our phones have cameras and allow us to film and record events. This is why a lot of murders have been getting a LOT of attention, because the killings have been filmed and are shared all around the internet. Filming is also a great way not only to spread news and events but also a way of keeping law enforcement accountable for their actions. Halsey recently posted videos of her at a protest where the police were advancing on them, and she also showed pictures of her tending to people's injuries.

Media and various other means of digital sharing allows groups of people to coordinate and make an impact on a greater scale. Ideas are propagated throughout the internet, therefore, giving thousands of users a chance to observe, interact or participate in global movements meant to transform the very meaning of our "status quo". These users could then go forth in their actions in order to impact the global community through various means, influencing their environment and the world around them. Despite, computer science being an apparently foreign field in the light of speaking out, modern day large scale activism would be practically impossible without the great aid of the internet!

Spreading info/opinions, and capturing moments

# data[].attributes.body
Computer Science impacts activist movements by making it easier to spread an information or opinions, so the world can both know what is happening and know what certain people think about it. However, this could also lead to bad thing, such as spreading propaganda, rumors, or lies, that might convince people to do things or support things that can only make it worse, such as people destroying and burning things, using the protests as an excuse. Also, computer science helps capture moments so people who are stuck at home (which is most of us) can easily understand what is happening. This is especially useful because of COVID-19 making us stuck at home, and that makes it harder for us to learn and go out to see it ourselves.
