Media, Protest, and Resistance: Research Symposium
Communication Institute
Media, Protest, and Resistance: Research Symposium
How can those working to resist democratic decline have the best chance of succeeding? What roles can protest play in enacting social change? How do different forms of media help or harm these efforts? How can we best unite resistance efforts transnationally? This symposium brings together a wide range of experts to address these and other pressing questions about media, protest, and resistance. Six professors from across the U.S. will present research highlighting different topics, cases, and approaches, and an additional panel will feature the perspectives of four Department of Communication graduate students. Sessions are free and open to all.
