1. What social justice issue do you want to focus on for your virtual protest? If you have more than one idea, feel free to include them in this brainstorming discussion.
2. For each issue you’ve listed, try to think about what you’d include in your video. Basically, I’m asking you to begin sketching out a rough plan of how you originally envision your virtual protest video. If you added more than one issue, this step could help you see that you may have more interest/ideas for one issue over another you’re considering. **Remember, most of this will change in the process. I just want us to begin the brainstorming/planning phase so we can open up a larger discussion.
3. Please include any protest images, video files/links, slogans/signs/etc. you can find quickly to help illustrate your brainstorming process.
