1. Dual processuality is the ability of users to create their own personal accounts but can also look at other users profile as well. In other words, Mejia is saying that social networks can be used in the users favor as well as the user’s friend’s favor. For example, people create their own personal Facebook account to show others their lifestyle while at the same time keeping touch with their friends and family by viewing other people’s profiles and commenting on it. Another example is Instagram where people can post pictures of their everyday lives. At the same time, their newsfeed would be filled with other people’s everyday lives. This explains how social media work in both ways (or “dual” ways) by letting the user be aware of other peoples life as well as other people being aware of the users life.

2. In our society, everyone raises charity or causes through social media. It is the biggest platform of advertising since everyone can find it and sees it as long as it shows on his or her newsfeed (and most of the time, it’s free!). It is very effective and quick in the way that it spreads the word very fast. For example, charity can use celebrities that support their cause to post about them in their social media accounts. Most celebrities have millions of followers and subscribers, which mean if they post something, it can reach out to millions immediately. Liking something on Facebook would definitely help spread the word out faster, however donating money to an organization is more helpful than spreading the word. For example, spreading the word does not necessarily mean that everyone who sees it would donate money to the organization. Hence saying, liking the charity on facebook and donating money to the charity is not the same thing. Lastly, raising awareness can be considered the same as contribution since people are contributing to the cause by telling more people about it.

3.Social inclusion and exclusion is significant because even though

    While surfing social media, whether regularly or irregularly, one most likely stumbles across a picture with the text “Like this picture to support Haiti” or “Show you care about (insert cause here) by liking and sharing this picture with all of your friends.” On the surface, these types of images seem harmless and actually beneficial. People gain the mindset that if they provide support for the icon in the form of “likes,” then they directly help those that the image shows the cause for. The producer of the photo however believes that this type of mindset causes deeper problems than what the social media poster actually intends. People stop volunteering and start liking pictures on social media to show what they call “solidarity” with those…

    Celia was the name of a young female slave, who came to work for a prominent Missouri family called the Newsoms. Robert Newsom, a plantation owner in Callaway, Missouri, purchased her at age 14. Newsom was recently widowed and it seems he purchased Celia, looking for sex. He started raping her after being brought back to the farm. From then on, Newsom "visited" Celia often in a cabin he provided for her which was very close to the main household. Over the years, Celia had two children with Newsom, which he also considered "his property". The interesting thing about Celia’s story is that it recounts a tale of social strife and clearly indicates the fact that slaves were playing with a heavily stacked deck in relation to their Caucasian opposites.…

    First of all, I would like tell you what is social media. Social media is the social interaction among people in which they create, share or exchange information and ideas in virtual communities and networks. Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein define social media as a group of Internet-based applications that build on the ideological and technological foundations of Web 2.0 and that allow the creation and exchange of user-generated content. Think of regular media as a one-way street where you can read a newspaper or listen to a report on television, but you have very limited ability to give your thoughts on the matter. Social media, on the other hand, is a two-way street that gives you the ability to communicate too.…
