Transforming Media: Social Networks and Citizen Journalism

On May 28th at the Congress of the Humanities, Judy Rebick discussed some of the themes explored in her recent book, "Transforming Power: From the Personal to the Political." Her lecture examined the social and political potential of what has become a new, interactive movement driven by technology - a movement Rebick asserts has the capacity to revolutionize our understanding of power and to engage an ever more connected public. The lecture was followed by a question and answer period. (Please note that audience members did not have a microphone, so audio quality varies.)
