“Imagine if Dr. King had a Facebook!”
Friday, February 24 @ 11:00 AM EST - 12:00 PM EST
We have created a video to encourage the use of Social Media for the cause MLK fought for. It is called: “Imagine if Dr. King had a Facebook?”
Written by Antonio “Toni Mono Flow” Monix and Isaiah “I Am Adverb” James, Produced by Shahram Sedehi.
The content of the video asks the viewers to IMAGINE:
- “If Dr. King had a Facebook? Would MLK send you a friend request? Would he see you as a genuine equal rights activist or yet another “fake account”!?
- How would MLK use Facebook for the cause?
- The cause of holding ourselves and our leaders accountable for how we treat our fellow humans, regardless of color or creed.
Location: Chicago Southside. We will show the first showing of the video and have a panel discussion with all performers and those involved with the production.
