What are the benefits and drawbacks of social media as a tool for social movements? What are the successes and failures of social movements like #blacklivesmatter? Finally, reflect on the quote that has been our theme for the semester: “No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.” How can we (as criminal justice scholars) change people’s consciousness and shape social movements?
