The social media discussion post was interesting because it aligned with a lot of what I've been learning in my other classes--especially Social Media Strategies. Also, it reminded me of the documentary The Social Dilemma #rgcmtalkback20

@kaylincarp I hadn't thought about this, but that's a really interesting observation! I definitely think there needs to be more diversification in the realm of superheroes. Everyone deserves to look up to someone as a little kid that resembles themselves #rgcmtalkback20

This class opened my eyes to how little I know and how little is actually taught about some important topics... I wish I had learned a lot of what I learned in this class much sooner #rgcmtalkback20

@itsamykayt I agree! I knew woman played a large role in history, but I had no idea to what extent. I didn't start learning about some of these influential women's impacts until I got to college #rgcmtalkback20

@mikaelajdeleon This surprised me also! It's crazy where some of the main stream things we have today got their beginnings #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

@mikaelajdeleon This class has definitely pushed me to think more deeply and reflect on topics I normally would avoid. It was a really stretching and beneficial experience! #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

I hope to take what I have learned from my time in this class and continue to educate myself in how I can best care for others. #rgcmtalkback20

This course (Race, Gender and the Media) has challenged me in a lot of ways and pushed me to talk about topics I normally avoid. I think it was a very rewarding class, and I highly recommend it! #rgcmtalkback20

@jedthomas1998 Honestly, Ant-Man is one of my favorites. Stories of anti-heroes are always so interesting to me. I like reading and watching things that break the typical story mold #rgcmtalkback20

For my second Z-group assignment I chose to talk about the overt sexualization of women and toxic masculinity promoted in popular TV shows #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

@OliviaStoneou It is fascinating that though this topic is more widely discussed, it is still a huge issue #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

It was cool to talk with my dad in the second diversity interview. There was a lot about my family history that I didn't know #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

@mikaelajdeleon Yes! I feel like this is a prevalent thing with social media. It can be great for getting the conversation started, but sometimes that's where the "activism" stops.... #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

The superhero discussion was fun. I am a big fan of Marvel, but the superhero I chose was from DC... #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

@emilywillks This is wild to me. I'm sure there are benefits to this (like less anxiety and such), but I feel like there are some major pitfalls to this as well #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

@OliviaStoneou I agree with this! It was nerve-wracking, but a very fulfilling assignment. I learned a lot from both interviews. #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

The second diversity interview with a family member was significantly different than the first diversity interview. It was kind of weird interviewing my dad, but overall, it was a good experience #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

@KeeganMWilliams This is such a good point. The sexualization of women is talked about a lot, but in regards to men, it seems to never be discussed. It needs to be talked about more #rgcmtalkback20

[Allison Johnson @alli_crampton]

I really enjoyed the faith discussion post. I love getting to share what I believe in an open environment. It was also really interesting to read about other people's personal beliefs and viewpoints #rgcmtalkback20

@Target uses a Social Media Strategies concept by being aware of current events and holidays #GaylordSocial
