We have viewed a compelling video about bullying

An interesting article as a follow-up to the "To This Day" video we viewed:

YOU as students of the digital age are witnessing social media forever-change our culture before your eyes. YOU are entering adulthood, armed with the tools of social media...to reach as many people as you wish...to SAY whatever YOU wish.

Well, what are you going to say!?!?

Answer each of the following questions on your blog in fulfillment of Assignment #10:

#1.) What cause do you wish to support using social media?

#2.) Why is this cause is important to you (detailed explanation)?

#3.) What are the BEST websites currently championing the cause you support (list 4 or 5)?
