REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicitySocial media can keep us connected with loved ones, make us laugh, and help us to learn new things. It can also create echo chambers and take more time than we realize or intend to give. After completing this action for a few days, how do you feel? What do you notice?
Alexe Raguindin 4/26/2020 9:37 PMTaking time away from social media even for just a few minutes gets your eyes out of your phone and out to do other things which I'v noticed and sometimes I went past time and stayed of social media a little longer. Social media especially right now has become pretty toxic and overwhelming and it's been nice to get away from it. -

Alexe Raguindin 4/25/2020 6:52 PMSocial inequalities diminish a strong sense of community by creating this mindset of separation, as if we as a community are separated based of trivial things rather than what's really important and that is coming together to better ourselves and those around us. -
