@RachelChangRU I agree that community is a vital concept when discussing social media's influence on different movements and groups of people. I think that the hashtag #StopAsianHate not only brings together the Asian American community but others who choose to support as well - which is great!

@izel_mansur I think Angelina Jolie definitely embodies an effective leader in today's society. She takes part in different opportunities for communities to engage in growth and development. She demonstrates leadership abilities by joining different missions and empowering others to speak up.

[Katelyn Pineda @katelyn_dcim]

@margaux_dcim I also think that Selena Gomez is a great example of a leader! She aims to spread awareness of Lupus by using her influence and experience to create discussions on various platforms. This demonstrates courage, communication, and empathy.

@EmmaWatson After reading "Celebrity Politics: The Politics of the Late Modernity," I can conclude that Emma Watson exercises her influence to engage within political issues, encourage others to speak up, and contributes to positive change whenever possible.

[Katelyn Pineda @katelyn_dcim]

I believe that @EmmaWatson is both a celebrity and a leader. Her leadership is evident within her campaigns and speeches. She uses her voice and platform to speak on feminism and aims to empower others through her stories and experiences. https://t.co/LkzIgQm36i #LIDCF21_91

@TSaluka @GrantCardone I think Grant Cardone is an excellent leader, as he uses his voice to create motivational discussions. It is evident he makes an effort to create an encouraging online environment through his tweets and positive life approaches.
