Episode 80 - Public Shaming
from Game on Girl Hosted by Regina McMenomy
Some interesting discussions popped up around the selection of this year's Miss America. Social networks were ablaze with this story from BuzzFeed which chronicled many racist Tweets about the crowing of Nina Davuluri, the first Indian-American to win the title. From there, Ben Kuchera at Penny Arcade and Alyssia Rosenberg from Think progress posted responses to the idea that public shaming might be used as a learning tool in these situations. We discuss the idea of public shaming and whether or not it is an effective tactic for dealing with ideological differences. Let us know what you think on the site, www.gameongirl.com.
