Social Media’s Role in Democracy

Location: Online

The Democracy Group podcast network is hosting its first Twitter Spaces discussion on March 24 at 7:00 p.m. ET. Siva Vaidhyanthan, the Robertson Professor of Media Studies at the University of Virginia and host of the Democracy in Danger podcast, will join Democracy Paradox podcast host Justin Kempf to discuss the intersection of social media and democracy and media’s role in helping to better democracy.

One attendee will be chosen at random to win a free copy of Siva’s book, Antisocial Media: How Facebook Disconnects Us and Undermines Democracy.
