Description

In Part 2, we explore the effects of technology, particularly social media on the youth. We address some of the following questions;



  1. What do we make of the so-called "Twitter generation" and "digital natives"? 

  2. What role has technology played in political mobilization and organization in the continent?

  3. What effect does technology have on the efficacy of youth involvement in politics and advocacy?

  4. What exactly is "The social dilemma"?


The 4th Generation family extends its deepest gratitude to Omar Belghith who has produced this Episode and the Episode on Sankara's legacy. We convey our best wishes as he continues on his revolutionary journey.
