[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@borealissaves @MarieLamensch84 Media personalities have been having trouble holding back their excitement. #brianwilliams

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@IbrahimEDUC307 @zeabloom Also, how do powerful figures, such as POTUS, use social media for their own gain? How do they use it to push their own #propaganda? 2/2

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@IbrahimEDUC307 @zeabloom Are Facebook, Twitter, Google exempt? Are they free from political affiliation and agendas? #devilsadvocate 1/2

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@zeabloom How do we make sure that the powerful don't simply take control of the media we thought would give the marginalized a voice? 2/2 #twitter

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@zeabloom Zea, I agree it can be a powerful tool. However, I am also seeing those in power using it for their gain as well. *cough* Trump *cough* 1/2

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@andregrantmtl @zeabloom 2/2 if you want to criticize, be specific. If you have a question, ask it. We want ppl to feel that they can share without being attacked.

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@andregrantmtl @zeabloom Hey Andre, this msg isn't welcoming. It isn't easy to provide nuanced arguments in a limited space. Zea wanted to express something 1/2

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@tomrohan7 @AmandaGaglia92 There may not be a way for you to see all of the details. I will dig around on my end. If you want your Twitter grade, e-mail me.

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

Also, we are working hard to evaluate your video projects but it will take some time. Great work everyone!

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

Just posted some guiding questions for the #final exam. Check it out on the Course Announcements! #EDUC307

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@townsend_tiff The marks should be up!

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

#EDUC307 REMINDER: You don't have to upload your video to Youtube. We'll do that. Simply share your file using Dropbox or Google Drive. thx.

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

The power of Twitter. Glad to see ppl won't be fooled by expensive advertisements. What do you think?

Any thoughts on Elon Musk's most recent announcement? (I'm kind of terrified)

@EmilyFurholter @AmandaGaglia92 @ConuStephen Try checking today! If there is a problem, please e-mail me, as I'll see it more quickly that way. Hope y'all did well!

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@cridaddario I agree. It also a really powerful story about accepting yourself despite your differences. Many see Let It Go as pro-LGBTQ anthem. :)

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@mayaptl9 @AmandaGaglia92 Let us remember that we can enjoy things we are critical of. We can watch classic films but discuss problematic parts with our kids/friends

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

@AmandaGaglia92 Perhaps, but I would argue that over-analyzing is a positive thing. That is where really great questions are addressed. :)

[T.A. Dimitrakopoulos @pdimi_TA]

Also, I'd love to know. Can we simultaneously enjoy and be critical of these films/representations? What are your thoughts?
