#NewMedia gives 21st century citizens the platform to speak up about a social issue, bringing people from all over together. #Rhetoric is a tweet, a like, the way we look, but also more. Real & impactful social change comes from well-informed actions & participation.

There are 8 million #undocumented #immigrants in the #workforce.
Delmer Palma realized there were problems with the foundation of this building and told supervisors. He was disregarded, survived the preventable collapse, and now faces deportation.

Trump’s war on immigrants is escalating.

Days after the deadly attack on Latinos in El Paso, hours before ‘offering condolences’ to the people he helped target, Trump gave the OK to carry out the largest single-state raid in our nation’s history. [1/x]

Embodied argumentation is a rhetorical option in which an activist leaves their own comfort, and uses their body to communicate a message about a social or political issue.

The ICE raids, in which undocumented workers are arrested, affect children too. These children are citizens who are left alone when their parents and loved ones are taken away.

“I tell them not to cry, that no one is coming for me. I don’t want them to miss school. I don’t have papers, but they are citizens, I don’t want them to be ruined like I am, working in those plants.” https://t.co/4woxlE8Vnf

Andrea Arroyo’s exhibit is an example of invitational rhetoric. This exhibit is open to all and acts as a space where conversations about current social issues can be explored and discussed.

This image appeals to our #humanity. It encourages the viewer to lend a hand to the less fortunate, to the ones seeking opportunities, hoping to be treated with #dignity and #compassion.

Ordinary people who take action against inequality are “catalysts for change” because they empower other ordinary people to become part of a social movement, alongside others with shared values, as they advocate for extraordinary change.

@judyd0e @DrTexasOates I like this meaning because it includes a lot and you’re touching on the importance of reflecting on our actions in order to learn from them and make better decisions in the future.

Democracy is when leaders listen to and represent the best interests of citizens.
Democracy is when citizens are empowered to participate.
When collective voices lead to change, to progress.
#Democracy is working together to make a better life for all.
