Chomsky

Hey guys,
This weeks class focused on the views of Noam Chomsky towards media literacy. We watched a video in particular that was about teens and young adults expressing their power of speech. I actually enjoyed the short video a lot because I think its important that more students speak up upon what their feeling to banish the sense of embarrassment or judgment which they are most commonly afraid of. The generation of students arising in the future are hopefully very media literate. Due to the fact that media and technology is ruling our world it is crucial that we are taught and know how to use the media in our own beneficial way and to explore it critically beyond its boundaries. We also watched an Ali G interview which I found pretty funny so if you missed it and you have time click on the YouTube link below! Enjoy,
-S
