Seminar Group Project

Divide participants into multiple groups with each group taking 10—15 minutes to develop a list of social media warfare tactics to counter hate rhetoric or racially, religious, or gender preference bias in social media posts. Upon completion, have groups exchange their lists of tactics, with groups taking 10—15 minutes to develop a short list of guiding principles for special interest group staff, volunteers, or supporters to deal with hate rhetoric or racially, religious, or gender preference bias in social media posts. Meet as a group and discuss the guiding principles selected by the groups to counter hate rhetoric or racially, religious, or gender preference bias in social media posts.
