Protest & Accountability: Are we doing too much? In this social media age, protesting people and companies is now common practice and a click away. However, are these protests effective? Are they as impactful as protests in our past? Has the declining attention span of many Black millennials on social media hindered the progression of social change? Has social media improved accountability amongst the accused? And is the volume of online activism making our society better or worse? The U Panic’d team sat down and gave their perspective on the topic.
